Cosina was the third party manufacturer of the OM2000. It was based on a
design that was common to the Canon T60 and one Nikon (I forget which). I
bought what appeared to be a mint condition Canon T60 and some months later
after very light use (it wasn't my main Canon camera), the winding mechanism
failed, causing exposed frames to overlap each other. When I heard that the
OM2000 was based on this Cosina body, I knew I'd pass on it AND the
subsequent Cosina (Bessa) Leica thread mount bodies as well. I'd take an
OM1, hands down.

Hi all,
A few days back, somebody mentioned that the OM2000 is a fragile camera.
That's the first time I've seen that kind of comment about that camera
model.
What specific problems of this nature have users actually experienced?.
Brian
