Olympus OM-2

A pioneering 35mm film SLR from 1975 that introduced automatic off-the-film metering, measuring light reflected off the film plane during exposure for remarkably accurate results. Compact and lightweight in the tradition of the OM system, it remains a favorite among film shooters for its reliability and elegant handling.
