: 1. Is there an Oly lens or accessory that you wonder why you bought
: it because it is not that great?  That is, not that great.

Eyecup 2 w/o correction lens. Completely useless to prevent false light
entering the viewfinder.

That is interesting. Has anyone explored how much light from the viewfinder affects the meter reading on the OM1? There is probably not much direct sunlight that would enter the viewfinder window since it would be blocked by your head. Sunlight at an angle to get by your head should be blocked by the sides and top of the Eyecup 2. Will ordinary ambient light(not direct sunlight) affect the reading? Do I need a baseball cap with side curtains?
