Wanted to forward this.  Its a repair shop modifying the FM10 (OM-2000)
to half frame.  Interesting.

To Dealers and the Repair World in general;

To those of you who don't know yet, 
Professional Photographic Repair  has been converting
or manufacturing new half frame cameras for about 1 year
based on the Yashica FX3 Super 2000 and now also the
Nikon FM10. These are truly converted cameras and not
jerry rigged.  We have about 100 of these cameras out now
worldwide (as far as Japan)  and seem to be making steady
progress with them.  I thought I should announce this in case
any of these cameras wind up in one of your repair shops for
service or sale.  The methodology behind the conversion
should be easy to understand but the special made parts would
half to come from us if defective.  More than likely though it
will be a standard camera part that fails since we all know these
are not expensive cameras.(Of course the picture quality makes an
Olympus Pen look like a disc camera.) For further info:
