• Just a couple of thoughts Jack;
    The OM 1/2/3/4 are much better. Sadly they will cost more and do have a couple of issues relating to battery life/type and prism foam.
    If you're on a tight budget but still want a great camera I'd have a read, and look for Konica, Minolta, Yashica bodies. You can still these on the ffordes or LCE websites sometimes.
    Some of the motor driven, plastic Nikons like the N90(?) are cheap and supposed to be ok but I've not used them. The Nikon EM is another one to look for and a really nice camera.

  • Cheers! I’ll keep an eye on the single digit ones and have a read up about the other cameras. Really appreciate it!

  • No worries.

    Just had a quick look about and Nikon EMs with a the 50mm E lens are plentiful under £100. Other things are a bit harder to get good examples of.

    Do you know how to check shutter speed and a lens for fungus?
