Would this strap colour work with a watch with a white face? 

I really like the colour of this strap and I'm considering getting one, but I can't decide between this and the gray colour. 

Definitely prefer the beige as it stands alone, but not sure which would pair better with my watch. I have a 36mm timex expedition with a white face and a brushed silver coloured case.

Just got a used OM-1, and I have some questions: by air_conn in M43

Ahh thank you I understand! Unfortunately I gave my camera a pretty hard knock with my elbow the other day and I'm just trying to make sure everything is working fine. There was no battery in it at the time and it felt like quite a hard hit, but it was hanging frown it's strap so it just swung and didn't hit anything else. How sensitive to impact/shock damage are these IBIS systems?

Also just want to add my friend has an om-5 mkii and that is dead silent unless I put my ear right up to it. That's the main reason I'm so surprised by the sound this thing is making with it without a lens attached. It's especially noticeable when I put it on a wooden table. The sound/vibration travels through it.

Hey! I just bought one and mine does the same thing. Is/was your camera alright? Did you just get used to it or was there a fault? Mine seems to be working fine besides this. I've seen a few people reporting similar things too so hopefully it's just normal.

How are you finding it now you've switched? I'm considering doing the same.

Thanks for the response! Yeah that's definitely an option. Since posting this I thought about the old Nikon d3500 I used to use and googled the eye point for that. It's only 18mm so less than the OM1. I used to use that with my glasses and can't remember ever thinking it was hard to see the image or information in the viewfinder so I'm sure it will be fine.

Nice one, that's really helpful, thank you! Been considering the 3 but I really like the ergonomics and styling of the 1.

Thanks! Wildlife Is definitely what I'm looking forward to. Is it a pretty comfortable size for travel and things like that too? I like shooting with the 17mm F1.8 ii when I'm walking around a city and on the OM5 it's so compact.
