Remember the plain OM 2, my loved one which belonged to my father and 
sunk together with me at the Salto del Penitente?

I made every effort to keep it alive, and worked almost well for two 
years more - it died when we went to the beautiful Joaquina beach, 
Florianópolis, Brazil during January 2006. The thinner sand I've ever 
seen/touched.

It looks good in my library, I dust it off once a month.
The 900xxx 50/1,4 has a little of 'sound of beach sand' to hear inside, 
but nothing wrong with that :-)
