Condition report:

This OM-3 was used where it was made for: taking pictures, many pictures. When we first got in this camera it did not fire and as you can see it is very brassed on corners and buttons. A beautiful copy with proof it was in the hands of a professional documentary photographer for decades. Alan from ACR was able to get the camera to working order again and he also cleaned the camera inside and out to reveal this wonderful patina. If you only like mint camera’s this is not the one for you, but if you do like these cosmetics and just want a good functioning OM-3 this is your chance to get a fully restored example. Camera fires correctly at all speeds and the light meter is accurate on all tested EVs. All functions work as intended. Lens focuses freely, not too smooth but certainly also not too heavy. Camera with a rich history and beautiful patina, ready for its new owner.

Main specs of the Olympus OM-3 / OM-3TI:

The OM-3 still uses the same great OM lensmount. The camera is fully manual, there is no automated exposure modes. The OM-3 does however have an amazing built in light meter which can be used for multi spot metering as well. The viewfinder houses a LCD screen which shows the main exposure settings, a much more modern solution compared to the older needle readouts in the OM-1 and OM-2. The maximum shutter speed now is 1/2000. Focus and film advance of course are still manual.

Olympus OM-3 / OM-3TI variants:

The OM-3 was released in 1983 and was produced in small quantities compared to the other models. It could only be bought in black finish. It was discountinued in 1986 already, this adds to its rarity nowadays. In 1995 the OM-3 Ti was introduced. This was an improved version of the original OM-3 which included an upgraded shutter and even more sturdy body. The OM-3Ti was finally discountinued in 2002. The OM-3Ti comes in a dark graphite like color only.

Like the OM-3 but don't like to spend the premium budget on it? The OM-4 is a very similar camera in terms of both looks and usuability.
