My Olympus 35RC - First Photos

[shanenoir]

Looking good, but I'm not too sure if the focusing is accurate. Stopped down it's sharp in the first photo of the car, but I was pretty sure some of the other shots would be more in focus. I cleaned these up in lightroom.

Shane,
I have one also. Great little cameras aren't they.

its a sharp little lens and surprised me too. nice shots ...

probably my favorite picture i have yet to take

thought this one would've been a good shot except of my focusing capabilities

this is focused to infinity and not sure how i feel about it

The car shot is very sharp, the others not quite so. The others appear to be interiors, and maybe a slower shutter speed produced some blur.

The RC is a great camera, and you're off to a good start with it.

Regards,
BV

Congrats, Shane, they are great little cameras. I now have two (the second one was a gift). They feel like they're were milled out of a solid block.

Congrats on your Olympus 35RC! I own two of them, I think they're great little cameras. Fantastic lens on them -- and a nicely compact but usable design.

Here's a shot I took a while back. This was with Kodak 400UC film and an 81A warming filter.

This particular roll was with BW400CN, but it's not the only B&W film I use. I now get all my developing and scanning work done at Photo USA in Roanoke, VA.

A friend... I forget which film. Negative, not slide.

Sometimes the film advance doesn't work and I accidentally get multiple-exposures.
Sometimes it works

Sometimes it doesnt. Or maybe it kinda does.

Everything so far has been metered with my Sekonic. I really wish I could use the camera's meter, but considering I bought this for its manual controls, I can't complain. Actually, I am really happy with the results.
