Films for the Olympus OM-4 T

The Olympus OM-4 T is a 35mm camera and requires 35mm film. The 35mm format has played an important role in photography in the past and some producers continue this tradition by still producing films for this format today. Great films for the Olympus OM-4 T that are still available today are the Kodak Gold 200* for colour photos and the Ilford FP4 Plus* for monochrome B&W photos.

Of course, there are a variety of other 35mm films for this camera. The colour film is a negative film and is processed in the C-41 development process. This development process is offered by most laboratories. Colour film development is available at some large drugstore chains in Germany. The exposure area of the 35mm photo camera is 24 mm x 36 mm. With a normal film (135-36), 36 photos are usually possible.

The camera was very popular with professional photographers and was appreciated for its advanced exposure metering and high reliability. However, despite its popularity, production of the camera was discontinued, which means that it is no longer officially sold.

Fortunately, there are still many Olympus OM-4 T cameras available on the second-hand market, but the cost varies considerably depending on the condition of the camera. Some cameras may be in near mint condition and are accordingly more expensive, while others may show signs of use and come at a cheaper price. However, it is important to be careful when looking for a second-hand camera and make sure it is in good condition to avoid disappointment.
