Hi all!

I was recently on 8 days hiking in the Swedish mountains and thought that I
would share some experience. I took two good friends with me, my girlfriend
and my OM-1n. Anna (gf) brought another good friend, her Mju-1. For film we
used Kodak Ektachrome 100G in the OM and Kodak High Definition 200 in the
mju. Lenses was 35/2, 50/1.8 and 135/2.8 and a 20 mm extension tube.
Polarizer 49 mm and 55.

This is a really nice and light hiking kit covering the most of our
interests. I would probably take the 28/3.5 instead of the 35/2 but it's in
a bad condition right now.

All was nice in the start, but after 2.5 rolls of film my camera fails and
was in a complete lock up. Nothing to do but rewind the film and put the OM
equipment in the darkest spot of my backpack. The mju-1 worked like charm,
and were loaded with Ektacrome for the rest of the trip. A nice little
camera that mju-1!

/ Johan
