  bought this EM for $25
  EM is one of the smallest + lightest SLRs nikon made
  here it's next to my trip

  
  unfortunately there's a problem with the camera
  the meter would trn off a few seconds after film advance
  i opened it + tried to fix it, but failed
  did replace some light seals + mirrow bumper with craft paper...

  unfortunately none of them r working properly... :(

  
  petri 1.9
  the lens had obviously been moved around
  everything is now focused too far... :(

  interestingly,
  foreground bokeh is nice
  but bakground bokeh is only so-so
