Single frame… Apple blossom and the Olympus OM40 Program

Olympus OM40 Program, Zuiko Auto-S 50mm f/1.8 + Close-Up Lens f=40cm – 1/500s, f5.6, – O.O.D. Fujicolor C200 rated at ISO 100

Last year my ‘Photography Friday’ partner (and camera finder extraordinaire) Rachel found an Olympus OM40 Program (and Tokina 28mm lens) in a charity shop in Chester… above is the final frame from the test roll of film.

I paired the camera with an Zuiko 50mm f/1.8 lens for most of the roll and also used an Olympus 49mm Close-Up Lens for a number of shots (including this one.)

I’m quite taken with the OM40… I won’t be parting with it!
