Here we have a fantastic condition Olympus OM2 35mm film SLR camera with Olympus Zuiko 50mm F/1.4 fast prime lens.

For our full written review of the OM2, visit our site here.

This camera is in excellent condition, showing only minimal signs of its age. It is fully functional, and comes with a new battery installed. Film compartment, battery compartment, viewfinder, and mirror box are all clean and without corrosion or debris or damage.

The lens is in very good condition with no marring or fungus on the elements, clean filter threads, and clean lens mount. The aperture blades are quick and snappy, free of oil, and flawless. The focus ring spins with perfectly weighted fluidity and the aperture ring clicks with mechanical precision.

There are some blemishes within one of the lens elements in the lens, which presents as a spotty haze. To me, this looks like a haze upon the back of the front lens group which could likely be cleaned by a professional or enthusiast who is capable of taking the lens apart. However, I did not want to try this myself because I tested the lens on my digital Nikon Z5 and I did not see any indication that image quality is impacted by the flawed lens. It is possible that the lens will suffer from slightly lowered contrast when shooting into the sun, but it should not impact images too badly.

All of this said, the camera and lens package is being sold at a discount due to the flawed lens.

This camera offers shooting in both Manual mode and Aperture Priority mode by simply flicking a selector lever. It's a full-featured machine that will handle anything any photographer will ask of it, while being able to accommodate those who are more interested in just pointing and shooting.

The metering system of the OM2 works amazingly well, metering off the film in more than one location, resulting in perfectly exposed shots when shooting in Automatic mode. Convenient exposure compensation dial lets the photographer shoot in Automatic mode while still retaining a +/- 2 stops of exposure control for artistic and technical shooting.

The 50mm Zuiko lens is a perfect focal length for standard and general purpose photography, snapshots, action shooting, street photography, and portraits. The fast aperture of F/1.4 allows the shooter to create amazing bokeh when shot wide open, yielding excellent subject isolation, shallow depth of field, and those beautiful blurry balls of light we all love. Stop the lens down to smaller apertures and the optics sharpen up immediately, creating pinpoint precise images with super fine resolution.

This is just a fantastic machine for someone who's serious about creating excellent photos, or for those just starting out on the journey to photographic bliss.

The camera will be packaged securely and shipped immediately.
