About this camera
The Olympus PEN EE-2 is a half-frame (18x24mm) point-and-shoot introduced in 1968 as part of the Maitani-designed PEN series, and remained in production until 1977. It pairs a sharp fixed D.Zuiko 28mm f/3.5 lens with a battery-free selenium-cell automatic exposure system and a simple two-speed program shutter, adding a hot shoe over the earlier PEN EE. A red warning flag rises in the viewfinder and locks the shutter in low light, guarding against underexposed frames. Its compact size, twice-the-frames-per-roll economy and reliable meterless operation make it a durable favourite among film shooters and collectors today.
Measured Performance
- Light meter accuracy — EV12: 1.2 OVER / EV15: 0.5 OVER
The shutter fires and the automatic exposure works.
The light meter reads about 1.2 stops over at EV12.
Servicing
- Light seals (foam) replaced
- Viewfinder cleaned internally
