Comes with camera strap & lens cap. Introduced in 1972, the OM-1 was the first product in the OM Series. It earned wide acclaim as the world's smallest & lightest 35mm single-lens reflex camera. The ribbons in the cloth curtain shutter were replaced with strings, & the camera was equipped with an air damper to absorb the shock of mirror movement. The condenser was eliminated, & a pentaprism with a curved lower surface was used. Olympus employed a wide range of innovative ideas to reduce body size & the noise & shock caused by shutter operation. Shutter durability was also improved, resulting in a system capable of withstanding 100,000 operations. The finder screen could be replaced from the lens mount side. The OM-1 initially went on sale as the M-1. However, the product created such an impact that Leica asked Olympus to change the name. Olympus improved & developed a wide range of technology in preparation for the production of the OM-1, including rust prevention technology for the steel materials used to reduce weight, pentaprism processing technology, & heat treatment & surface processing technologies to maximize durability.
