I'm a huge fan of Bill Watterson's comic strip, Calvin and Hobbes. I was
looking at some of them online and found one where Calvin imagines himself
shrank to insect size, and in that state he climbs around on a camera. The
camera has no nameplate but the shape and controls are those of an Olympus
OM-G (OM-20 outside the USA). Note the self-timer lever, the exposure comp
dial, the location of the flash sync socket and the shape of the shutter
release surround.

My first manual camera was an OM-G that I got at age 11.
