Mark Dapoz can give the definitive opinion, but it sure looks to me like an
OM-1MD with an M-1 top. The cross-point screws on the lens mount are
another indication in addition to the "MD" badge. M-1s originally had
slotted screws, and while it is possible that the slotted screws were at
some point replaced with cross-points, it is much more likely that someone
just put an M-1 cover on an OM-1 MD. If there's a motor drive socket on
the bottom, then the bottom plate isn't from an M-1, either.
I've actually seen two just like this in the past couple of years as I've
been searching out nice M-1 examples. Both of those were OM-1MD cameras
with M-1 tops as well.
