OK, everyone, I'm going to do it. I'm going to unload a lot of the Olympus
collection I have
built up over the past five years. I'm going to move to Contax, who is
still demonstrating a clear
commitment to making quality manual focus cameras and lenses. The new Aria
strikes me as
being everything the OM5 should have been but which we will never see. This
doesn't mean I'm
going to cut off my nose to spite my face; I'm keeping a 4T,  a 1n, all my
macro gear, and some
specialist items not duplicated anywhere; like the two fisheyes and the
24/shift.

You guys have been great and so you get first crack at everything. Please,
no price police. If
you're seriously interested, e-mail me. Also, please note that every lens
is sold with a top quality
B&W UV filter (unless noted) and front & rear caps (may or may not be Oly).
Bodies have body
caps, but BYOB (buy your own batteries). Price also includes UPS COD ground
secure funds to
you for items over $200; items less than $200 check in advance & I pay
shipping. Don't want to
ship overseas tho without $ up front. Finally, I have included serial
numbers, so you can tell
what year it was made in, whether it's Multi-coated, Super-Multi coated,
uncoated, etc. <g>.
Prices are fairly firm although I would accept offers on multiples.

OM1 chrome body (not MD) 7873xx exc+ few small scratches around tripod
plate. Very clean,
w/ hot shoe $130

OM1n Black for collectors only! 21976xx. This is about as mint as you can
get! I don't think it
has ever seen a roll of film. Shoe 4. $300.

OM2n Chrome 9007xx exc brassing on film cover and hinges -- top and front
look great w/ shoe
4 missing MD cover. $170

OM2s Black exc ++ 10433xx. Also retrofitted with new bright 2-13 screen,
although this was the
first screen change I did and I scratched it going in. Will include both
screens $275

OM3 exc 10063xx brassing on back, slight on front corners, retrofitted with
2-13 screen. Also
leatherette needs gluing. Serviced when I bought it by authorized NYC Oly
repair center (before
I knew about JH) $550

OM4 Black exc++ 10046xx only slight brassing on film holder & small
scratches on baseplate.
This camera was serviced by JH when I bought it and battery drain problems
corrected. Also
retrofitted with Beattie screen, even brighter than 2-13! As good as a
4T... $400.

Zuiko 35-70 f/4 1365xx exc+ cosmetically, focus/zoom ring a little sloppy
$125 (tiffen filter)

Zuiko 18mm 3.5 1005xx exc+ comes with genuine Oly 49-72 adaptor and B&W 72
KR filter
$550

Zuiko 24mm 2.0 1005xx exc +$325

Zuiko 28 2.0 1028xx This is a little problematical because although
cosmetically exc+ there are
some fine scratches on front element. I have not seen any image degradation
in the times I have
used this lens. OTOH, I have not done a/b comparison. So, $250.

Zuiko 35mm 2.0 1181xx ex+$175

Zuiko 35mm SHIFT 1044xx exc+$475

Zuiko 40mm 2.0 1045xx exc+ except someone has blacked out white lettering

Vivitar Series I 90mm macro w/ Heliopan filter & matched 1:1 adaptor exc++
$175

fine, $275

Olympus Winder 2, exc-$75

Olympus T32 Flash exc++$90

T20 $40 exc +

F280 $100 exc+

Bounce Grip Adaptor 1 (not 2) $40 exc+

250exp film back with cannisters. I believe this fits only OM1/2 not OM3/4
exc++ make
reasonable offer

Still interested in 20 2.0 and 38mm bellows lenses; will trade. Next few
days I'll look into the
boxes and post cables, toitchkes, etc.


Regards,
Denton
