Olympus Pen EF half-frame camera, tested and working, with fixed Olympus f3.5/28mm lens and 72 exposures on a 36-shot film.
Description from the seller
In this offer, this time a very beautiful Olympus Pen EF half-frame camera. This Point & Shoot camera, as they are called, is in perfect working order.
The Olympus Pen EF is a half-frame camera, which means that on a 36-exposure roll you can take 72 pictures. In times of cost savings, that can really count. Twice as many photos on the same film reel.
The camera has been tested with a test roll and everything works very well and fine.
Included is an original leather case in which the word “Olympus” is pressed or embossed. A wrist strap that allows the camera (whether inside or outside the case) to be carried, and one AA battery that powers the light meter and the built-in flash.
The Olympus Pen EF is very easy to use. Because it uses a 28mm lens, the user does not have to focus manually. Everything from 1 meter to infinity is in focus. You only need to print.
When there is insufficient light, a red flag will immediately appear in the viewfinder, signaling that the user should use the built-in flash. With a simple push of the slide switch, the flash pops up to the side. After a few seconds an orange light appears and the camera is ready to use with flash. If you no longer want to use the flash, push the flash back into place.
The Olympus f3.5/28mm lens is particularly sharp, free of scratches and polish marks, with no fungus or haze inside.
The camera operates fully automatically and sets the shutter speed itself between 1/30 sec and 1/250 sec. The ASA values can be set from 25 up to 400.
The viewfinder is particularly bright. There are few or no scratches on the camera housing. I must mention that there is a crack in the plastic protection of the selenium light meter, but this does not affect the camera’s functioning or light metering in any way.
The camera is highly regarded for its very compact body, attractive design, light weight, sharpness, and color rendition, but also for the fact that this type of camera can take 72 exposures on a 36-exposure roll or 48 exposures on a 24-exposure roll...
Analog film photography has become a hype again among the younger generation. They want to feel again what photographers from the 1960s to the 1990s had. Taking photos with black-and-white film and developing and printing them on Barite or Chamois paper… that time was wonderful.
The camera with accessories will be very carefully packed and shipped with a Track & Trace number and insurance.
NOTA:
I always ship my goods with Track & Trace number and insurance, to guard against possible damage and theft. This shipping cost is somewhat higher and is required by Catawiki to be used.
I ship my goods via Catawiki’s "Smart Shipping." This was introduced to obtain cheaper shipping costs with various carriers, for the buyers’ benefit. Everything is done automatically via Catawiki and I only receive a digital shipping label. I therefore have no say in the shipping costs.
I make use of a one-time expense allowance of €10 that is added to the shipping costs. Included in the expense allowance are the time I spend packing, the packaging box, the time I spend driving to and from the post office, and a contribution to fuel, because my car does not run on water just like yours.
If you cannot agree with this, please do not place bids.
Thank you in advance.
