My impression of the N*k*n version, the FM-10, is that it is a "good" camera. 
The lens mount is metal (appears to be hard chrome plated, just like "normal" 
cameras), the shutter is a vertical travel copal, and the viewfinder is 
bright. It has a lot of features in common with the Olympus version. It would 
not be worth repairing, however, as others have noted about the OM2k. I would 
not characterize either camera as "cheap" though.

Be OS
