Ladies and Gentlemen,
I'm new to the Olympus list. I just discovered you when I went looking
on the web to replace my stolen OM-1. I had that lovely little black
camera since 1975 and used it for everything from snapshots to crash
scene pictures to photomicrography (on my Olympus scope, of course).
When stolen it had a roll with pictures of final assembly and testing of
an Avid MK IV airplane that I built. If anyone finds a used, black OM-1
with motor drive capability but without the MD logo and film with a red
and white homebuilt airplane please get in touch.
Funny thing about replacing the camera, I got the bug and now have a
nice OM-1n (needs new sponge seals but otherwise perfect) and an OM-2s.
Like peanuts, can't buy just one. There sure are a lot of lenses I
"need" and the macrophotography equipment could use some new stuff, and
an OM-3 or 4 ti would be nice. I just did not realize how deprived I've
been.
Maitani did such a wonderful piece of work with these cameras it is a
shame only a few still appreciate them.
