Put me down as a cantankerous oldish fart. Just celebrated my 52nd birthday 
earlier this month...Born 5-2-52...THATS 5th FEB to our American readers   :-)  
First camera  OM10. Bought about 1980? My memory is going :-(  Has performed 
faultlessly even after being used as a primary camera while caving in many wet 
caves. Now owned by my daughter. since then..OM1n (x4) OM2n, OM2spot...soon got 
rid of that..OM4 (x2) OM4T and OM3. I dread to think what discovering this list 
has done to my finances !
