Here's an Oldie...

[Big]

Hey everyone, I inherited my grandfather's Olympus OM-4 SLR from which my dad passed down to me. I have never even turned it on (batteries are dead though). It has a couple lenses and a flash but being made in 1983, I have no clue how to work everything since this was before I was even born. Does anyone no if it's a decent camera?

Definitely. Although you posted in the wrong sections. There's nothing digital about the OM-4. It's most advanced feature (and also it's claim to fame) is that it was the first camera with a spot meter. Compared to the centre weighted average meter.

Sorry man, I just spend all my time in the digital section so I spaced out.
