dytkos 17,607 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Just ordered an Olympus SP 810UZ (flea bay) BNITB, full UK warranty, £170, delivered. God, your gonna be blathered with pics when I find out how to use it (a bit). Cheers, D. (Yes Paulus, it's a bridge for the purists out there ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tegater 789 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Look forward to the pics Dyktos. My first slr was a zenit, but then for years I used an Olympus. It was an OM1, and sometimes used my Dads OM2. I still have the OM1, and apart from the fact its a little hard to get the batteries for the light meter, its a cracking camera with Zuiko lenses.

dytkos 17,607 Posted August 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 (edited) Cheers Andy, Probably take me a week to learn how to use it (and thats the most basic functions ) Where's the festival at, The Mecca or different venues and who's performing? I think it's Glasgow fortnight, if so Blackpool will be full of Jocks Cheers, D. Edited August 2, 2012 by dytkos Quote Link to post Share on other sites
