Wow, less Olympus talk than i've ever seen on this list.
So, a few people got off on vinyl and stereo tangents a few days ago:
Leading me to a few questions:
1) Has anyone made their own LP cleaning solution? Replaced the factory
cables on their turntable? (I have a Rega Planar 3 with stock cables...)
2) Can anyone give me ideas about the difficulty and expense of building my
own vaccum tube amplifier, or even integrated amplifier?
3) I'm still looking for a used, not pretty on the shelf behind glass doors
40/2 Zuiko....brassed, body wear, wearing lens mount, etc. Anyone know of a
source? I have a few good OM bodies for possible trades.....
The reason i'm looking for a 40/2 is travelling. In the last few years,
i've been to new zealand, india, nepal, peru, and many, many U.S. states.
So I'm trying to get the perfect travelling kit. (So far, the 28/2, 50/3.5
and 100/2.8 due to 49mm filters and size.) And the 40/2 would be a nice
replacement due to lens speed as a normal lens. Maybe I'll have to settle
for a 50/1.8, but the 50/3.5 is just sooooo good.
thats it, anyway, sorry for the OM content, james.
