The Dutch Golden Tulip hotel chain has two hotels in Egypt. One in Cairo and the other is a resort hotel on the Red Sea. On a recent visit to Cairo, I stayed at the Cairohotel. It is a four star hotel and rooms start at about EUR65 a night.

This was the OM2000.
Olympus traditionally produced two ranges side-by-side, single number models (OM-1, 2, 3 and 4) were aimed more at professional users whilst the two figure ones (OM-10, 20, 30 and 40) had features more suitable for the amateur user. So where did a model named ...
