It was ordered by a pro-photog who had to wait something like 6 months or a
year to get it. When it finally arrived he was in the hospital dying of
cancer. He screwed a skylight on it, mounted it on an OM, looked through
it, put it back in the box and he died a week later. The estate sold off
his equipment through our store and I got first dibs on it. At the time
Olympus was quoting something like 9 months for the 35/shift and two years
for the 24/shift.
