This is a big mea culpa

I am the worst gear head in the world. Have almost terminal GAS (gear acquisition syndrome). However, every now and then, something reminds me why I own all this stuff and shames me for not using it to better purpose.



The OM-1 came out in 1974, the OM-2 a year later. It was a decade before the OM-1n & -2n came out. Now if three years go by without a new body (notwithstanding the three firmware updates that totally changed the camera's functionality) the manufacturer is hopelessly outdated.

So, yeah, shame on me for feeding into that.

Says the guy who just spent 3 grand on a body and lens . . .
