Popular entry-level 35mm SLR from 1979 with versatile zoom lens - and the manual adapter included, so you get both auto and full manual control.
Key specs:
- Aperture-priority auto-exposure
- Manual Adapter included (for full manual shooting)
- Tokina 28-70mm zoom lens
- Olympus OM mount
- LED viewfinder readout
- Shutter speeds to 1/1000s

The OM-10 was one of Olympus' most successful consumer SLRs - compact, good-looking, and easy to use. Set your aperture and the camera picks the shutter speed automatically, with a clear LED scale in the viewfinder. The Tokina 28-70mm zoom covers a handy everyday range from wide angle through to short telephoto.
Best of all, this one comes with the clip-on Manual Adapter - the accessory that's often missing and sold separately. That means you can shoot in full manual mode as well as aperture-priority auto, giving you complete creative control to learn on.

Founded in Japan in 1919, Olympus has grown from a domestic microscope manufacturer into a major multinational optics corporation. The brand introduced its first camera in 1936, and went on to pioneer compact camera design — most notably with the iconic Pen series of compact cameras and innovations that consistently pushed the boundaries of size and portability. Known for their precision engineering and renowned Zuiko lenses, Olympus cameras have long been a favourite among photographers who value quality imagery in a compact, well-built package.
