I recently discovered my Great Grandmothers camera hidden in my closet. She used it for years while she travelled, and I'm very interested in learning how to use it.
The camera's an Olympus, and came with what I believe is a Macro Lense (it says 70 - 210 mm on it), a 50 mm lense is on it, and a "Vivitar Auto Thyristor 225".
I've figured out some of the easier buttons and knobbies on it, I think.
I'm pretty much looking for someone to explain to me the basics of what I'm doing when I'm turning certain things, especially 3/4 of the "things that turn"... the fourth is focus, but I'd still like to understand the numbers.
Thanks to anyone willing to be patient enough with my absolute lack of knowledge about this and reply
