43 system and m43 system cameras with adapters are the only ones I know of. I read somewhere that most classic OM system lenses were uncoated, but I highly doubt that, most were probably single or double coated. They preform rather well, flare wise, for optics with minimal coatings.

G;'day all

Knowing my interest in old cameras, my brother-in-law presented me with
his old SLR.  I've always wanted to play with one of these:

Very cool.  When they came out, I was very intrigued by the thought of a camera 
much smaller and lighter than my SRT-101.

I've got a friend with an OM-1.  Are there any DSLRs that can use the lenses?  
Or do they only work with the micro 4/3 and a fotodiox adapter?

She has two lenses, a 50/1.4 and a (IIRC) Vivitar 24/2.8, so it's probably not 
worth too much effort trying to find a body to use the lenses with.
