Olympus OM2 Chrome & Zuiko 50mm 1.8
Olympus OM2 Chrome & Zuiko 50mm 1.8
Description
We service and restore all our old film camera bodies in our workshops in Lyon.
This model is an Olympus OM2 Chrome. This camera is a legend in film photography.
It broke the codes imposed at the time by Nikon (Nikon F2) and Canon (Canon F-1) by offering an extremely compact body, much smaller than those available at the time. It also introduced a new light metering system that occurred not before but during the shot. This greatly facilitated flash photography and this system was subsequently democratized by all manufacturers.
This camera has many features: shutter speeds from 1/1000s to 1 second, Bulb mode, over/under exposure button, self-timer, automatic mode (aperture priority), manual mode, flash coupling.
Completely serviced: speeds, self-timer, winding, mirror, shutter release, light meter, automatic mode, flash... Part of the rewind shaft is missing (see photo).
Two batteries are supplied with the body.
This body is sold with its lens:
Zuiko 50mm 1:1.8. Traces on front elements and some dust.
All our cameras are old: they may show signs of wear. The photos are there to best describe the condition of the items. Do not hesitate to contact us if you would like further information.
