50
Aged 26, in 1980, I bought an OM-10 50/1.8 (but I had wanted an OM-1 since
1972, couldn't afford it)
Kept the 10 until 2001, when it was stolen. The insurance payout (c $500
cash equivalent to new-for-old settlement) was the start of my stock control
problem ...

Ah the thread morphes again! You bring up an interesting question Siddiq!
For those brave enought to answer -
How old are you now (you can skip this part if you wish!) :)
And (more importantly) how old were you when you bough your first OM, and
what was it?
I am 43 (for another month anyway) and purchased my first OM at the ripe old
age of 17. An OM-1 with a 50 1.8 Zuiko.
