Olympus OM-2 S (KS-99E)
The Olympus OM-2 S is a 35mm single-lens reflex camera from the OM system, sold by Olympus during the 1980s. It sits within the compact OM line aimed at enthusiast photographers who wanted automatic exposure in a small SLR body.
Evidence on what an OM-2 S is worth in 2026 is thin: a single UK auction hammer result from March 2025 sells for £31, so any value range here is indicative rather than statistical. At saleroom level, hammer prices for this model appear to sit in the low tens of pounds for unverified or untested bodies, with cleaner working examples likely to command more.
