About batteries for the OM-1N
I was back home in Barcelona last Christmas and went to
a photo store. Looking through the batteries section of
the store I saw a 1.35 mercury battery - I got myself
2 more to keep in my camera bag. The maker is Varta,
and the guy in the store said that they keep getting them.
I was under the impression that they were banned or something
like that - I do not know is that is true for USA, UK and other
European countries, not for Spain...
I was going to find out if they still have on stock -
maybe some of you may be interested. If I recall correctly,
their price was about 2$ - not sure. If some people are
interested, I could contact the store and purchase a
batch.
(PS: will be out of town from Fri 14th till Mar 2nd,
if anybody wanted to follow up on this)
Cheers,
Javier
