Recently, I found out i am interested in photography. I wanted to buy a DSLR as my first CAM but as a beginner I post around the forum to ask what Cam is good for me. Decide on D40 or D60. When i told my dad i want to buy a DSLR, he went to his room and took a old looking brown plastic box and he open the box. To my surprise he took out a SLR from the box.
It was a Olympus OM--1 (n) with Olympus OM System Zuiko 35-70mm on it.( Did a little research on it ). However the len is blur,dusty, look into the VF so blur, dunno what happen to it. What i want to know is if i send to store to have it repair and clean, Will the Cam still work well and how much it cost to repair or clean? Maybe i will use the old SLR to shoot then i will not have to buy a new CAM ( DSLR ), so it is worth to repair/clean it instead of buy a new DSLR CAM as a beginner? Must good advice !!! lol
Some info about the Camera:
