Walt,

When you say "in one lump", is there any epoxy involved?

Stick with the OMs!!

seriously, very seriously, considering selling damn near the whole OM kit
and kaboodle, in one big lump to a well-known neighborhood purveyor of used
photo gear, keeping only a couple of very special pieces.  We have talked
already, but no deal has yet been struck.  I'm taking a few days to
contemplate.

would my OM stuff be worth less, too?  The price I have been offered will
enable me to begin with only three lenses.  But they are fairly nice ones:
24-70/2.8, 70-200/2.8, and 180/3.5 macro.
