Does unpacking an OM10 to strip for parts count? It's getting there, there are some niggles to sort out with the house but otherwise good. Quite chuffed with the OM1, just need to run a test roll through. Might replace the prism in my other OM1 as it is showing signs of the same problem.

There's a small blemish at the bottom of the prism/viewfinder in mine too. Maybe I should check the foam and replace it to make sure it doesn't develop into a problem.

Yeah, you don't want that gunk getting into where it shouldn't be. It's like old light seals. If yours is blemished then it's already started and will need replacing.

Cokin filters are universal. You buy the holder and then an adapter ring to suit the lens filter thread. I've a load in my hoard somewhere with various size rings. Useful to have.

I had to look up the 707, not seen one before. Looks like it was designed to rival the Minolta 7000. I have quite a few Cokin filters but I never use them.

Do you mean you're going to buy the paper or emulate it.

Buy the paper. Need to measure up the wall in question.

Looks good. Do one wall with this and find a complementary tone to paint the other walls
