Speaking of a Fang.  I picked up a 2S at a garage sale for $50.  Oh, yeah,
it had a 40 f2 hanging on it.

| Being an actor/director in a fringe group, and after being educated
| in the most expensive University in Sweden, I make roughly $15 000 a
| year, which is very low even in Sweden. I estimate I have Oly gear
| for about $ 1 500 - way to much for that income and way too much for
| my actual photographic skills. But, I have chosen to  prioritize that
| 'cause it's a hobby I love, and owning Oly stuff simply makes me
| happy (and a little frustrated - more, more...) Part of the joy is
| hunting for that rare Fang, the $10 mint OM-3Ti. Until I find it
| (yeah, sure) I will do more or less good affairs, and keep on taking
| as many pictures I can. Hobbies are bound to cost, and one must, to
| an extent, let them cost. I can't like Tom afford the 35-80, but we
| share the same love for "the sake", and I'm happy he's able to tell
| us all about it's performance. As a Marxist I believe that the
| important struggle must be to let every human be born under the same
| presumption, after that if you strive to get rich or to make theatre,
| that's up to you.
