Ah those garage sales!! Saw a OLY ER case on the ground -- it contained an
OM 40 with a Zuiko 35-70 3.5-4.5 zoom. Guy said it stopped working a couple
of years ago -- was just a toy for the kids. How much for the toy? says I.
$1 was the reply. Shutter was locked up, but I sprung for it anyway. :-)))
Batteries got the shutter to release, and the camera seems to work pretty
well at fast shutter speeds, but hangs up at the slower speeds -- do these
have the sticky magnet problem? How to fix ? (I know, send to John or
Clint). The lens is an S Zuiko, but sure looks MC to these old eyes -- and
is in very nice condition.
I think I did good!!
