Here we have an excellent condition Olympus 35RC 35mm film rangefinder camera. This camera is cosmetically and mechanically very nice, and ready to produce another lifetime of fantastic photos.
It comes with fresh batteries and is ready to shoot.
The auto-exposure and metering system works perfectly, the viewfinder is bright and clean, and the rangefinder patch is contrasty and defined. All levers, dials, switches, and knobs actuate with mechanical precision. The shutter speeds area accurate, and the lens aperture works properly.
The film compartment and battery compartment are clean. The lens functions correctly and has been tested with film. The shutter and aperture blades are clean and free of damage and oil.
The camera is being sold at a discount because the leatherette is lifting very slightly on the edges, and the light seals look as though they’re due for replacement. Test rolls have not shown light leaks, but they are getting old.
The Olympus 35RC is a multi-shooting-mode rangefinder camera capable of full manual shooting, or shutter-priority auto-exposure. A very sharp 42mm F/2.8 Olympus E. Zuiko lens earns it a deserved reputation for producing extremely detailed images. During its era it was regarded by many as one of the best compact rangefinders of the 1970s.
The camera is incredibly compact and lightweight, extremely quiet, and easy to shoot. These facts make it ideal for travelers, street photographers, and anyone looking for a camera that's capable of making amazing quality images without weighing them down.
The camera will be carefully packaged and shipped immediately.
