Well, I finally got around to fixing the OM2s tonight, making a longer pin
from a paper clip. The delay was in trying to get the camera empty. Thanks
for the tip.
I got an Olympus Trip 35 from the auction site a couple days ago ($6.80 plus
shipping). Okay, I guess you can't fang a Trip 35. It was a little dirty,
but cleaned up nicely and works perfectly. Dustin, my nine-year-old son has
claimed it. He's having fun with it, and quickly caught on to how to set it
all. As of now I have 3 sons who have taken Olympus cameras from me, and a
wayward daughter who uses a c*n*n.
A couple days ago I received some Kodachrome 64's back, and the Kiron
80-200/4.5 shots are amazing. If anyone wants a less expensive alternative
for this length zoom, this is the best I've tried. I had some prints from it
before, but for me the real test is with this slide film. Thanks to G.
Reese again.
