First roll from Olympus OM-1n

After receiving the delivery of the used 40 year old OM-1n from USA ebay seller, sending to a local camera shop for a check & replacing the light seals, I went for a shoot with a 24 frames 35mm film.

The whole roll took about 3 days to finished. Focusing is much easier compared the old Russia rangefinder due to the Single lens reflex technology and the Olympus OM lens smoothing focus ring was nice to use.

With the metering available, the total control of shutter speed , aperture and focusing are much a breeze. No more auto iso (in digital camera) and  ensuring there is  no camera shake, the focal length and shutter speed relationship have to be taking into serious consideration unless a tripod is used.

All in all love the manual control and feel of this film camera. And with the developed film, I can say this old camera is 100% functioning.
