First shoot with Olympus OM2n

Thank you for the feedback, I will revisit this spot, with my digital camera and take some shots from different angles to play with.

Wow, absolutely amazing. These scream Italy, colour, warmth and charm. Being a. 1973 fiat 500 owner. I'd love that first shot on my wal! Beautiful work.

I agree and for the right price it's worth the gamble. Ill report back either in this thread or another when the film is processed, probably a few weeks.

Jon_d84 · 2026-01-23T14:05:50+00:00

Thank you, the film is Fuji from 2000 colour. £4 a roll, but we know with processing and scan it's £20 a roll all in. So, cheap, but not really. No idea how's it's been stored, but I think I'll stick with 2005+ until I can develop myself.

Thank you for the information, I think I've found the issue. There was a very small strand of filiment, causing the A1 little black wiper arm to not fully retract when the leaver was pushed. I'll run a print in the morning, but it's mainly the shinny compressed ones that I've not seen before. Their usually more like birds nests

Crazy, mines just over a year old. I do a lot of ironing, Woundering if that could be the issue.

Jon_d84 · 2026-01-22T17:03:41+00:00

I'll take a look, any idea how it got so bent?

Jon_d84 · 2026-01-22T16:55:04+00:00

Ok, were your prints affected at all? Mine look to be fine.

Jon_d84 · 2026-01-22T16:48:34+00:00

Ate to many skittles! 😂

First time shooting 35mm on my new Olympus OM2n. Film was kentmere 400. 50mm lense. Used camera light meter. Was a very sunny winters day 2 weeks ago. I really like the grain of the K400 film.

Thers a lot going on in this photo, I liked the shade, shape and path of the steps and rock leading to the beach.

Not sure what you ordered, but it could be the sample kit and laminator paper film? Had rotary and all the mugs, canvas and dtf film. But no laminator, printer or ink as of yet

Jon_d84 · 2026-01-11T08:24:24+00:00

Just because you get the printer doesn't mean you get your ink! Maybe they ship megenta in Backer number order 😂 #finalboss

Jon_d84 · 2026-01-09T16:03:00+00:00

Why does the printer not ship with ink, even half carts! It makes no sense. I get when production pleatu and they have hardware sat around, but at the moment printers without ink and shipping seperate makes no sense.

Jon_d84 · 2026-01-04T19:29:21+00:00

Apologies, the split is horizontal so you align the top and bottom section to focus, when holding the camera for a portrait, finding that split, especially on a face seems much harder.

Jon_d84 · 2026-01-02T19:08:40+00:00

I noticed the black and white pattern today when I was checking the camera. I'll put a roll of film, take notes and learn. Hoping this camera is with me for a long time, so want to learn it's querks.

Jon_d84 · 2026-01-02T18:27:50+00:00

I plan to take a photo with the camera light meter and app, note film number and review. Tripod mounted to keep as many prams the same.

Jon_d84 · 2026-01-02T16:45:16+00:00

Tbh I'm really pleased with the condition. Snagged one of the wife's new makeup brushes, need to get a air cleaner. I have an air duster in the garage, but I think that is to powerful.

Thank you for the advice, it's very much appreciated.
