Not just one. They left all eleven carried, on purpose to save weight
(those cameras are heavy). They only returned the important part: the
film magazines. One magazine is rumored to be forgotten on the moon,
so it is possible to pick up one complete Hassy on the moon. The fare
is a bit steep...
Concerning the space OM4, I once found a short article on it in Danish.
I have an English translation on my web page, including a photo of the
camera. It looks decidedly odd with the white coverings.
