Default Olympus OM-F/OM30

My father's 1983 Olympus OM-F/OM30 SLR film camera. The lens attached is a 50mm 1.8.
A little bit about the Olympus OM-F/OM30 from camerapedia.org.

Quote:
The OM-30 was released in 1983. It was called OM-F on some markets. It existed in chrome and in black finish.
It was Olympus's first step towards an autofocus SLR camera. It was a true autofocus with one lens only, the 35–70mm AF zoom whose focusing ring was motorized, with three AAA batteries to operate it. With the other OM mount lenses focusing was only assisted with an indicator in the viewfinder.

Thanks for viewing.

Nope. Doesn't work anymore, something about the shutter button wont make the mirror flip.. strange. Wish I could fix it.. I would take some pics and scan them and put them here, but oh well.
