Olympus OM-1 + Zuiko 1,8/50mm | Single lens reflex camera (SLR)

This model was produced about fifty years ago and was one of the most popular cameras of its time. In Japan, it was common for each household to own a camera and take family photos, so even today a large number of used cameras remain on the market. However, because this camera was popular among general households rather than professionals, many units were not well preserved. Only about one out of every five cameras on the used market is still in proper working condition. This particular camera has very little corrosion on the metal parts, and the body leather and lens coating—both of which are prone to damage—are in very good condition. The light seals have been replaced, and the light meter operates correctly with the proper battery, providing accurate readings. The shutter speeds are also accurate, so you can start shooting immediately after the item arrives. The item will be shipped via DHL or FedEx, and it will be dispatched within one business day after payment is confirmed.
