Olympus OM30

Olympus OM-30 – 35mm SLR Camera (OM-F)

The Olympus OM-30 (also known as the OM-F in some markets) is a 35mm manual focus SLR camera introduced in the early 1980s. It was Olympus’s attempt to incorporate autofocus functionality, although this feature only worked with the rare Zuiko 35–70mm AF lens. The camera is otherwise fully compatible with all Olympus OM-mount lenses, offering a classic aperture-priority auto exposure mode, full manual control, and a bright, easy-to-use viewfinder.
