Most OM-1 through 4Ti backs are interchangeable. New style backs may not fit
oldest OM-1s (the ones that have four little silver guide screws around the
film plane area.)

Subject: [OM] OM Backs Interchangable?
| Hi,
|
| My OM-1n, Ser. no. 2,189,xxx has the back without the 'film
| reminder' metalframe.
| I like it without just fine, but I've seen other OM-1s with it. I
| quess, at some point
| in the OM-1n's production it was changed?
|
| More practically, are the backs interchangable, those that are
| removeable, at
| least for the single digit OMs?
|
|
| Cheers,
|
