Sounds like you want to get an OM1n in good condition, then send it off to
Clint on John H for a carefull CLA.
Although, with macro, you may end up wanting flash...in which case an
OM2n probably would come in handy. Look for a good one, and send to clint
or John to ensure that it will outlive you.......

Bellows are cool. Ain't got the 20/2, so I don't know thatone. Haven't
done that much macro atall, however with the arrival of a T8 flash
that seems to be changing for me. Now alll that's needed is time......
