I don't have any closet queens, I can't afford to collect. Everything I have
now gets used day in and day out for my work, including all of my OM gear.
If I could afford it, I'd have (and use) a 35-80 Zuiko along with a few
other OM items that will likely never make their way into my bag. I sold a
print last week..YAY! The photo was made with OM gear.

I used an OM-4T and, I think, a 50mm f1.8 mij Zuiko. Film was Ilford Pan F
developed in Rodinal.
