Gorgeous little camera with the excellent Solinar lens. This may be my prettiest camera.

A half frame! Neat.

I toyed with the idea of collecting other half frame cameras but had my hands full with Olympus. Now, About 3 years ago I sold several at a camera show to crazy collectors buying for Japan and put the money into a Leica M4-2, which then cost me much more to have put right. Something I had not planned for. I still have 5 working half frame Olympus cameras, 4 VF type and a Pen F.
