My second camera. Of course I liked very much the Pen EES2 and decided to stay within the brand. I wanted a reflex to feel more in control. I knew about them because I had a cousin that bought a Yashica and explained me marvelous things about choosing the speed, depht of field, etc etc. The Olympus OM is a system of very compact cameras, real masterpieces since the first ones in 1971 till the end of production in 2002 ! Zuiko optics is excelent and what I like the most is how smooth the shutter button operates. Combined with the size and light weight the camera has, it gives you the impression you have nothing in your hands. Aperture, focus and speed are adjusted through rings around the lens axis. You must use it to feel it.
Find in this   link   a very nice site about Olympus.



Here with the Bounce Grip 2 and T32 Flahs



135mm f2.8 and flash T20



This 50mm MACRO f3.5 is a good option to use as a standard lens






I have many acessories from the OM system but unfortunatelly this is not a picture of them. It is just the last page in the the camera manual that I found worthwhile to put here to show that it was indeed a big range of lenses and acessories with interfaces to medical and scientific intruments also produced by Olympus.
