Olympus OM-1 35mm SLR Film Camera - Black.

Offered here is a gorgeous Beautiful Olympus OM-1 35mm Film Camera.

The Olympus OM-1 is a fully-mechanical, 35mm film SLR first produced in 1972, though back then you’d never find an OM-1 on the shelves. That’s because in its original iteration, it was called the M-1, named to immortalize its legendary designer, Yoshihisa Maitani. When Leica discovered that Olympus had made a better camera than their identically-named and vastly inferior M-1 rangefinder, the boys from Wetzlar had a tantrum and “requested” the name be changed. Olympus bowed and changed the name to OM-1, and knotted lederhosen far and wide were swiftly unwound.
