Sounds like it may be a junker then. At least you have a lens for a possible future buy.
Craig, it's hard to put a price on it as film is on the up. I reckon there is at least £50 of film there.

Could be. I'll take it apart tomorrow and try a few things off YouTube I've seen

I like the design of this camera, especially the lens release.

I didn't realise that the two tabs on the lens do different things. The left one is a release, but the right one is a dof preview button.

I like the OM10 too. I just find the controls - mode selection and exposure adjustment - a bit fiddly. Apart from that, it's a nice light, easy to use camera.

How are you getting on over there Yoko? Need some more pics!

It's going good. Body clock has adjusted but really busy. However, it's mid-autumn festival next week, which is a public holiday, so I've got a couple of days off. Will try to get out and take more photos. Maybe experiment with some night shots to see what the OMD can do although the best aperture I've got is 3.5.

I didn't realise that either.

I found one well known fault with the camera. It didn't fix it entirely though. There's a very ominous rattle coming from inside too. Looks like it's going to be an ornament.

This is the fault I found. Fixed that but mirror still locked. I could release the shutter curtain though. I think something jammed and the owner forced the mech causing the idler lockup and breaking the mirror mech, hence the rattle. https://youtu.be/Y1mi6CTTSYw
