What battery do I need

Exelente!! El Zuiko 28 mm es una maravilla. Lo he usado por más de 30 años y cada ves me agrada más.. No me gusta la fotografía Digital! Todos hacen lo mismo y es muy aburrida Gracias por su video! SD.Mexico..

Hey I have a question Is it normal that the Olympus buzzes very loudly when turning it on ? I’m always worried that something is broken haha :)

All the OM-4 and OM-2SP cameras have mechanical shutter speeds 1/60 and Bulb. No batteries needed.

Hi ! thx for the vid! pls help, why my e zuiko 200 f4 only changes the aperture under B mode and with the shutter pressed down? I'm using om1n 35 mm body.

Hi, beautiful review! Do you know how to change the focusing screen of the OM40?

OLYMPUS OM2000 (1997) 4:00 , 5:40 lens

Bugs me that the shutter can be fired when turned off.

Superb video and really useful information. I think I've got the bug for collecting them. I have an OM1n but thought I had better get the OM3ti over and done with so that's on its way. Just need to make friends with the bank manager again after that one. My first ever SLR was an OM20. I loved it and wore it round my neck everywhere I went. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with everyone its really appreciated.

I found it in my dad store it’s working now but which film it will suit and how to get it. Thank you

G'day!

Did Olympus never make a more modern film SLR? Nothing with AF or matrix metering?

buying one today, great video

Subtitulos por favor. Soy nuevo suscriptor

Were you a member of the Olympus Mailing List ? It was a popular list that ran during the 90s and 2000s. I was a member.

The Olympus OM-4 with Zuiko 35-80/2.8 and Zuiko 24/2 was my workhorse kit during my film days. I held on to film photoraphy (Fuji Velvia 50) for a long time until full frame cameras became "affordable" . It was only in 2010 that I went 100% digital

When is it made

This was such a great series, I still come back and give it a view every now and then. I've been an avid Oly, user since 1976. Even though there isn't any responses any more I just wanted to put my two cents worth in. Thanks Oly35mm if you ever read this.

You know they also made a 250mm f2

I too have a slew of OM lenses but I went with the Canon 5D line of cameras simply because of the adapter is only a few mm's thick and it has focus confirmation (and I like sir's) My 5D variant is the 5DS R. It's worked out very well. Keep clicking.

Mate, please tell me this - do you have a lens cap for that AZ 4 Zoom? I just got this camera from my stepfather, and he claims there was never a lens cap (even though he bought it new) However, in the manual I did see the lens cap.

I think you would more accurate saying the OM4 had BATTERY DRAIN not LEAKAGE. leakage suggest acid getting inside the camera battery chamber, which is not the case. Basically the batteries just run done quickly.

Only the Leica R 100mm f2.8 APO can beat the Olympus OM 90mm f2 macro for image quality, but it has less bokeh

Great review! I have the OMPC version in America. Are you on Instagram? Cheers from USA 🇺🇸!

Is there a service manual or repair manual for the IS-3000?

Good luck finding that 40mm f2 at a reasonable price anymore.

Sorry about the ads.

People think low contrast is bad but if you like black and white you’ll need a low contrast lens. Low contrast typically translates to better micro-contrast. Conversely they believe high contrast translates to sharper images, it doesn’t.

great video!

I understand your project is closed. I just bought the iS-1 and iS-30 dlx. Both are great cameras and I have enjoyed them a lot. I found your video quite informative. Now I know the various cameras in this series. As a collector of Olympus cameras --- Thanks big time for the information!

Thanks for the video, but what if I asked you to choose one or two other Olympus cameras for me, combining mechanical and electrical features and many necessary specifications, knowing that I have the OM10? Thanks

Wow! I just looked up the 40mm and it goes for more than what I paid for my Leica M2!

I just got one a few days ago and im so excited !!!!

Nice video, thanks.

these go for 450-600eur these days

that 40mm is worth like 2 grand now, LOL. Nice little collection. (I didn't look at all the prices... maybe you could find it for a thousand or less? Not sure. It's worth some dough though).

Thanks for your enthusiastic review! I have just purchased an IS 3000 for as little as 35 euro's, which ads up to about the same amount in dollars, together with the flash and wide converter! Not a bad deal I think. (I also own ánd use the OM 4Ti; the Om 2n, the trip, the superzoom 110 and very soon the Is 3000)

Macro lenses are too sharp for portraiture.

Ah yours is the more advanced version of mine!! I have the Olympus Trip 500, mine has no flash control it's just on all the time, also has no LCD info screen, it does have a mechanical frame counter though!! 😊👍😁

0:10 The long throw is a dream for macro focusing

so centurion is useless, because no film for them?

May ganyan po.. Olympus 35-s

awesome wee camera. A workmate just picked one up for me from an opshop while on his hols bless him Looking forward to giving the pen a push cheers for the vid liked and subbed mate

I have the bellows and the 80mm f/4 manual and 50mm f/3.5 auto. Both are fantastic. You can use these leses on a mirrorless camera with confidence and if you know what you're doing, you will get brilliant results. Real macro doesn't need an auto lens and in some ways it's easier without it. Unfortunately the 90mm macro has become a cult lens and you will pay over a barrel for one because idiots use it for portraiture. Olympus were very good at this and were, in fact, industry leaders in macro and micro photography. Be careful buying the bellows. Mine are very good but they are sometimes cracked.

The self timer on my camera appears to be detached :')

You can use with adaptor on EOS sensor x1. 6 or full frame.....

Not really into lab conditions real photo best. Thanks mate..

I recently bought an OM2 and an OM1 in that order. I love them both as if they were my children (I don't have kids). The other day I had to butcher a broken OM40 to use its prism in the OM2 (the dreaded foam prism rot). It felt wrong. Am I a bad person? I'll need to do the same for the OM1. I'm turning into a mass murderer.

I got om10 and om30, love them

I got the purple one
