I'm sorry but I can't see anything strange about that eBay posting.
IMHO, the description seems to match an OM-1 and I don't see where it
says anything about auto-exposure. The position of the switch is
consistent with the layout of the OM-1 and so is the presence of the
mirror lock control on left side of lens mount (when viewed from the
front). The fim speed selector knob also looks like that of an OM-1.
Please correct if I'm wrong.
Regards,
Ray
