"A second article in the forum covers the President of Magnum photo
agency Chris Steele-Perkins who lists among his personal cameras , the
OM2 AND OM4Ti.  The article and accompanying photos cover the
photographer's trip to the Sudan during the 1991 civil war.  Once again
the photographer travelled with multiple OM bodies (three OM2).   There
was a good deal of coverage given to the features of the OM2 and OM4Ti
in the article."

Several days ago I was leafing through the Magnum book "In Our Time: The
World As Seen by Magnum Photographers" by William Manchester (1989).
There's a photo on page 63 of the annual Magnum meet in Paris 1988. The
person second from the right (no names in caption) in this photo has
what appears to be an OM4 around his neck.

Anyone know if I'm right here? If so, could this be Mr Steele-Perkins?  

Yours in OM trivia!
