Here is my new (old) camera:



Purchased on local auction site, paid 30 EUR.
I have just put in air zinc battery for the meter, works fine, now testing with the film...

Looks nice, pictures should turn out even better. Congrats!

Btw do anybody knows if/what Olympus FL RF model depictions really mean? Like, RC - Resin Coated, SP - SPot meter, LC - Long to Come, and so on?

Box as well - all looks quite splendid!
And just how old is it?

Purchase papers say it was bought in 1968 🙂

I have an LC...nowhere near that nice, however. I love it. Same great lens as the SP, but much simpler design and less prone to fail, match needle meter only. It's really a lovely camera. Enjoy it!

what a great find!

Wow man in the box and everything! What a steal!

I've really enjoyed my LC, it's a wonderful camera and just the right size (I actually prefer its size to my previous SPs) I just wish I could clean the VF assembly myself, mine's a bit hazy.

But boy what a lens on this thing! It's beautiful.
