Olympus OM-1

IT, phones and consumer electronics

The Olympus OM-1 is a compact 35mm single lens reflex film camera, introduced as the first in Olympus's OM system and notable for its small, lightweight body compared to rivals of its era. It uses a manual mechanical shutter with a match needle through the lens light meter, and accepts the wide range of Zuiko interchangeable lenses. It was aimed at both enthusiast and professional photographers and helped set the trend for smaller SLR bodies.

We recognise this model across the auction sites and keep every one we see together.

On a used one

Check that the light meter still works, as the original mercury cell batteries are no longer available and conversions or adapters are often needed. Look for signs of sticky shutter curtains, worn foam light seals, and smooth operation of the wind lever and aperture rings, and confirm any included lenses are free of fungus or haze.
