I realize I'm one of the newbies to Zuikoholism here, but I'm passing it
on to my next generation! I just received an OM-PC body that I bought
on the evil one. It's the second body I bought, as the first one was
damaged either in transit or while it was in storage by the seller.
That first body had a 50mm/f1.8 (non-MIJ) on it, so I took it off that
one and put it on the new arrival. The other body will now become a
parts "locker", as I saw on the Camtech site that there are limited
supplies of OM-PC parts.
My younger son now has that OM-PC, along with a 28-70mm Sigma and
80-200mm Vivitar. He also inherits my Vivitar 3500 flash unit. I'm
probably also going to give him the cheapo 2X converter I bought a while
back. Eventually, we'll get him better lenses, but this should be a
good starter system for him.
The only thing is, I guess we'll have to start buying pro packs of film!

P.S. The seller said that the camera's meter was off by three stops...
when I got it, I found that it had alkaline batteries in it! I put in a
set of silver oxide (PX-76) and the meter reads the same as my OM-2n's
meter.
