I bought my OM-1n (along with its accompanying Zuiko 50mm f1.8) and a 
small camera bag with the money I received for my 19th birthday in 1998 
from Jessops in Sunderland. I still manage to fit everything in that 
camera bag (an OM 135mm f3.5, OM 50mm f3.5 macro, OM 28mm f2.8, three 
cable releases, a t-mount, a lens pen, 2 rolls of film the OM-1n and 
50mm and a Garmin E-Trex GPS. Not a lot of gear I know, but if you saw 
the size of the bag!. TARDIS comes to mind! I was also given an OM-10 
and loads of gear a few years later but I guess that doesn't count. Its 
stuck in the loft at home, soon to be donated to my girlfriend.

All the best,
Gareth.
