It's a noble thing that you do, John, rescuing and nursing back to health
that poor, neglected OM. . . (how's that for rationalizing?)

In fact when I left it with the Sydney repairer he rang me before
commencing work to say that although he could bring it up to scratch 'as
new' it would cost about $US110 and one could buy a good example for that
much.
The thing is I only spent $US75 for the camera so am thinking that a total
of $US185 for a fully working, CLA'd OM-1 with a new prism and twelve month
warranty from the repairer was a better bet than a $US200 near-mint unit
(the latter may still need a CLA).
Am I wrong?
John (who's really trying to justify a phoned 'go-ahead' to my friendly and
very capable repairer).
