Olympus Pen FT + 2 Adapter (EOS and C/Y) + Yashica 2,8/28mm | Half-frame camera

I'm saving up for a new camera, so to save money I decided to sell a few items from my collection that I use less often: Here's the set: 1. Olympus Pen FT body in great condition, apart from particles on the mirror and focusing screen that can be blown out. I do not do that. A scratch and one larger chip visible in the viewfinder. They do not interfere with use. There was a slight unevenness left in one of the corners of the body after straightening the dent with which I bought it. Barely noticeable. Camera underwent CLA and seal replacement. Everything works beautifully together with the light meter. 2. The Yashica Lens ML 28mm 1:2.8 lens on the adapter for Canon EOS is basically for free. Apart from a small dust and an almost invisible scratch I can't find any flaws in it. Both caps are replacements. 3. M.u.k. adapter EOS-pen F. 4. Body case in very good condition. Olympus Pen FT is a half frame SLR is one of the most beautifully designed camera, unique among half-frame designs. With a unique optical system and a horizontally positioned mirror. A snapshot that sounds like honey. It has interchangeable optics! I’d like to write about the possibilities offered by the configuration of the selling set. In my opinion, using half-frame cameras is not only about getting 72 frames on a standard film, but about the possibility of composing images from several frames. And now, with the possibility of replacing lenses, you can take this method to a higher level of combination and get an endless spectrum of solutions. Native lenses are quite rare. But there are adapters for other systems. They are also rare. Sometimes very rare. My kit includes an adapter for Canon EOS lenses. M.u.k EOS-pen F specially designed to meet the needs of owners of these beautiful cameras. And the Yashica wide angle lens with a C/Y mount on an EOS adapter. This is an example of how to mix things up. Of course, with such solutions, the frame covers the central field of the lens. For some people this will be an advantage, because it is almost always the most precise area in probably all glasses. For those who like imperfections on the edges, this will be a disadvantage, because these imperfections are outside the frame. We also naturally have a gear ratio that increases the focal length. Yesterday I finished the film I put in it about a month ago and was slowly taking photos of it. The entire kit works beautifully and is ready to go. The sample photos were taken with this particular camera. Thank you for your attention.
