Omer,

I'm pretty sure Ikelite either made one for the OM, or had an generic enough
one to fit.  Pretty good housings unless you're used to a Nikonos.

I believe there was a listee selling one a while back.  He wanted a fair
price for it, but it was more than I was willing to pay at the time.

Fast focussing is a plus, but familiarity with your equipment (i.e. body on
autopilot), planning and forethought help a great deal.
