    I have just bought one. Second hand and have learnt much more about the camera in 15 min than normally. I tried my lens the exact same one with the opening up the aperture blades and they were fine. I think its already been said but when pulling the rewinder up you have to slide the button to which also works, I have yet to put some fim through but you said that you messed about with the ISO with out dated film how? thanks

    Greetings from Italy! I recently discovered your channel and find it to be extremely helpful, so thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion! I have been using the Olympus OM10 that was my mother's for a few years now, and I am thinking of exploring the use of flash. Are the flashes you are talking about also compatible with the OM10? Thank you again for everything

    That's a shiny aluminum lens. The one coming in the mail is dull, spotty, and has some yellowing in areas and the grooves in the focus ring have schmutz in them too. Looking at aluminum polishing videos...any tips on the yellow would be great..

    But that's clever stuff with winding film in F75. Ifyou take some shots and rear cover comes undone, lets say camera fell or something like that, and your film gets exposed... But pictures taken are saved in the dark!

    That was a blast from the past for me, Peter. I bought a Digilux 2 second-hand in 2009 for £250 and used it regularly for a few years. My father bought one too, for about the same price from the same shop. I loved using it and appreciated what we now call the retro-style shutter and aperture controls. After seeing your shots on Flick with this camera, I've been revisiting my old shots and enjoying seeing how they can be reprocessed with more recent software. The image size was 2560*1920 pixels. If I remember rightly the highest capacity SD cards it could use was 2Gb. In the end the control pad and other buttons stopped responding and it had to be taken out of service.
