This past year I've been getting really back into shooting 35mm - I had been using a trusty Nikon FM up until I was gifted a Olympus OM1 & wanted to review it & my first impressions of the camera. When I first started shooting film, I started with a Olympus OM10, so this felt pretty full circle to get an OM1 & give the more sophisticated sibling camera a go. Despite one minor flaw, I really enjoyed shooting this camera all around the Dolomites in Italy & I'm really stoked to put more rolls through it & see what I think in a more long term review video. So far, one of my favorite 35mm film cameras to date - that viewfinder is one of the best ever, which is tough to beat. Otherwise let me know if you used any of the Olympus OM film cameras & which one is your favorite! Enjoy!
