Olympus OM-2 outfit

Found a nice Olympus set and I'm really tempted to keep it and to use it.
Glass, diaphragm focussing of the lenses are great, camera seems to work very nice, but the light seals...
Anyone here knowing a good source for replacement light seals?
Could make them myself, did so for my Leica R4s, but a ready-made set would be good.
Any information about the lenses from your side? Specially the 1:1,2/55 makes me nervous to try out.

Shocked That's gorgeous... the 55/1.2 + shade is the cherry on top!

Interslice make seal kits. Not camera specific but instructions for a wide variety of makes and models. Find them on ebay...

BTW, nice looking set!

It is the original hood for this lens, engraved with 1,2/55.
There is a giant Olympus flash, too, that came with the camera. Unpacking everything really made me my day, today!

Thanks to all, so finall, I will have to cut and glue again, like usual.
OK, this camera-set will reward that work, I guess.

Rolf, thank you.
Guess I will do it myself. Worst part is removing the rotten foam. Bah!

That is really nice set. Keep 55 and switch 28 for 28/2 version and you have all you need:)

Yes, I'm pretty sure, I will keep the 55mm lens. The rest, flash , 200 and 35mm will probably go.
