Hi,

Sorry for the non Olympus post, but I thought someone on the list could 
give me an unbiased opinion. Ha, who am I kidding? ;)

In Jan my father in law handed me his 35mm kit having gone to digital 
P&S. It's the body in the message  subject with  Mi*olta 35-80 4.5/5.6 
and 80-200 4.5/5.6, a Tokina 20-35 3.5/4.5 and a manual focus Kalimar 
500mm mirror which takes some kind of adaptall style mount. Also a 
Mi*olta flash unit.

I just haven't had the desire to pick it up, learn the controls and try 
it out - everything's plastic and while the lenses are quite compact 
the body is massive. I haven't had much opportunity to take any photos 
since Jan, but there's been no question of not taking the OM when I 
have. The one time that I could see it being useful (aside from the 
20mm instead of the 24mm zuiko) is having AF to take fast moving 
children at play.

Is the camera / lenses any good? Or should I just get whatever small 
amount of money I'm able to now selling it?

Any thoughts are welcome.

James
