Pretty good package cost if you're going to keep it. The body would be
~$150-$175, the lens perhaps another $100 so for 220Euro or ~$200 it would
be a good deal though not a 'fang'. I feel the OM-2n is one of the pinnacle
cameras in the OM series, it seems to have a great 'feel' and works very
well in almost every circumstance. I really like that lens too, the small
size more than compensates for the slower speed. Most of the new wonderbrick
autofocus cameras zooms are f3.5 or slower.
