Got this with my Olympus FTL camera today. Pictures of camera and lens taken after a good cleaning, which involved vinegar, alcohol, windex and lighter fluid.






Images taken mounted on Sony DSLR.

Sounds like quite a process! Any chance you took any "Before" pictures?

Thank you.The above link from Olympus is very informative as far as the historical line up. Aside from good quality I love it is because its in M42 Smile

Unfortunately I did not,because the moment I received it,I wanted to clean it-it had marks of corrosion on the camera body, and it was dirty. I will be cleaning it some more when I have some time. I have a picture below from the place I bought it -its not the greatest image
