I've only borrowed one but you can use your OM as a meter and transfer the
settings to the view camera. For B&W the film is inexpensive per sq. inch but
much more per shot. My friend processed the B&W for me so I can't advise on
costs for this or color.
You might consider the Zuiko 18mm used vertically and not tilt the lens away
from the horizon. This should give the equivalent to the 24mm shift as far as
angle of view but then you'd only have 1/2 of the negative to work with.
