Olympus OM10

Launched in 1979, the Olympus OM-10 was part of a lineup of Olympus SLR cameras targeted toward the consumer market, rather than professional.  The camera is largely built from plastic components to reduce both cost and weight.  Additionally, the camera operates almost entirely in aperture priority mode only.  One could buy a manual adapter control unit that plugged into the front of the camera, enabling manual control of the shutter speeds, but otherwise, the camera automatically set shutter based upon the selected aperture.  The OM-10 uses the OM-mount system of excellent Zuiko lenses.
