AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
OLYMPUS PEN EF, tested and working.
Hello from Japan!
We provide high-quality cameras and lenses to the world.
The Olympus PEN EF (1981) is the last of the celebrated PEN half-frame line, and the only one with a built-in flash — a neat piece of packaging that keeps the camera pocketable. Like its siblings it records two images on each frame of 35mm film, so a 36-exposure roll yields around 72 pictures, and its selenium meter sets exposure automatically without a battery for the shutter. The PEN series remains one of the most admired compact camera designs ever produced.
