Olympus OM-10 35mm Film SLR

A basic overview of all the controls and features of the Olympus OM-10 35mm Film SLR. This camera is Aperture Priority, with manual mode available through an adapter. Also note, this camera will not operate without batteries as it has an electronic shutter.
Unfortunately no sample photos to exhibit from this camera yet.

You missed a button :-) the collar round the shutter release button turns the light meter LEDs back on if you leave the camera in the On position and it times itself off.

Just so everyone knows, the indicator in the finder is an indicator ONLY. It does NOT actually control the camera in any way -- it only shows the approximate shutter speed the camera may deliver in "Auto" mode. The shutter speed is controlled by the light coming through the lens during the exposure (more or less), reflecting off the film, then into the SbC (Silicone blue Cell) below the mirror. As soon as the cell accumulates enough light (to a maximum of approx. 60 seconds), the shutter is released and closes. If there's no film in the camera, or if the shutter's electromagnet is sticky (a common problem), the shutter may stay open too long.
Also, without a Manual Adapter attached, if the camera is set to "Manual Adapter" mode, the shutter speed delivered should be approx. 1/45th second.

It would be nice if OM would build a full frame camera.
