Nah, I'm good thanks. Oh yeah, I also saw an OM10 up for sale for £150!

Madness! One up here for £40 with 2 Zuiko 50mm lenses. That's more like it.

Chucking it down here. I've been playing around with some old MF Zuiko lenses on the OMD. I haven't quite got the manual focus settings or the focus peaking quite right on the camera yet but initial results look promising.

Took the top off the Solidor to see if could loosen the stiff range finder adjustment wheel. Some alcohol fixed that. Posting these photos as I thought you might be interested in the internals.

It was given to me by a regular customer. He always needs help with his camera or with printing. I guess it was his way of saying thank you. There's only one other staff member that's interested in old cameras so there's no fight over these donations.

Poundland seems to have stopped selling lighter fluid, I need to get some for camera cleaning. The shutter on the Seagull is a little erratic in the first couple of shots but then fired normally. Leave it a while and it hesitates again.

I used isopropyl alcohol on the range finder above. It seems to be a favourite with the 'fix old cameras' YouTube channel.

They have some on Amazon, either 70% or something like 99%. No idea which would need.

Post a link for the 70%, I can't believe the rest would be water.
