Olympus OM-10 35mm film SLR w/ Zuiko 50mm f1.8 lens (serial 2623408)
The Olympus OM-10 is a classic compact, lightweight 35mm SLR camera first introduced in 1979. Its main competitors in the market were the Pentax ME and Nikon EM (the OM-10 is the lightest of the three, weighing only 450g or 620g with the lens attached).
Besides being one of the easiest-to-use manual focus SLRs, the Olympus OM-10 also excels at exposure accuracy with its 'off-the-film' metering technology.
This camera requires two LR44 alkaline or 357 sliver oxide batteries (available as an option).
Condition notes
The camera and lens were tested with film and delivered sharp, well-exposed photos.
The included Olympus Zuiko 50mm f1.8 lens is also also in very good condition.
