OM-1 and a trip to the Red Barn

[Andy Collins]

<p>Henry, that lens looks like it's a superb performer. That's definitely one to consider.</p>

If I didn't already have a Sigma 135 f3.5 mini-tele in OM mount I'd be tempted. That 135 Zuiko looks like a sharp lens.

<p>Inspired by Andy, Tom Collins and others, I was the lucky bidder on a camera lot which included an OM1. Wasn't sure what I was ending up with but as it turns out IT WORKS!. It's a bit beat up(matches it new owner well LOL ) as the photo shows ( missing the self timer switch)...that's okay, cause I would crack the lens if I tried a self-portrait. Definately needs some TLC and a CLA, but I was anxious to try it out. Ran a roll of Fugicolor 100 ( 12exp) through it and fell absoultely in LOVE with IT!. So I loaded a another roll of exp. Kodak Gold 200 ( 24exp) got 27pics. Okay, so now on the quest for additional lenses...OhMy is right. I was able to snag a zuiko auto-zoom 75-210 for 22.00 plus shipping. But lost out on a OM10 with a 24mm.<br>

Here's the camera and a pic with the 50mm 1.4 on fugicolor. IMHO the fugicolor is rich.</p><div></div>
