Re: P(hotographer)S/(OM-)2

Hi George,

Here on Marktplaats.nl an OM-2 is for sale with 3 telelenses, 1 standard
lens and a 2x converter.

Thanks for the tip, I'll check the site.

The highest bid is now 100 Euro's.

That seems cheap, Olympuc saturation? Meanwhile, I looked at some auctions
in eebay, bids and prices vary widly. Also, I test clicked a film and
waiting now to see the results. I must say, the feeling is real great, the
difference is comparable to that between a clone and a PS/2.

melted black synthetic tissue (don't get the name right now)

Err, "black foam". Sticky but removable. Remember, if you incidentally come
across such a camera body, without batteries (2x LR44, x76) the mirror is
shut up, no light. Look below, align the reset mark on the ring with the red
arrow (shutter comes to "B") and the mirror will open, provided everything
else is OK. If it does not open, remove the lenses, and see if the mirror
sticks to black foam pads. This is on the top, below the pyramide holding
the prism. This behaviour has lured people into thinking this camera were
broken.
