Hallo Ohm! and all others
Support and service for OM other than 3+4 is very minimal here in Germany
and support for PEN F and all the other goodies is zero. Seems Olympus
Europe has no interest in folks like us but preferes the digital+plastic
people. So I believe, that the cameras are only discontinued in Germany. The
OM 2000 was also never offered here.
But you can still buy the OM 2000, T 32, T 20 and other stuff, that was
discontinued in Germany (or Europe?) at Kurt Löper in D-25596 Wacken,
telefon (049) 04827-2456.
Gruß
Jochen (Hans-Joachim)
