Olympus Trip 35 Picture Thread

A few year back you could pick these up for pennies, you can still get a bargain now and again but on sites like fleabay prices have gone up, zuico glass makes this camera very special

Sharp lenses on these cameras. I found these two on eBay at good prices. The first one has been tested and is working. The black one is very tempting, but it has some issues. Check out the third one! Now I know how to pimp out my Canon FT QL....just cover it in snake skin. Seriously, that's a really pretty camera they're selling. If you check the seller's other items, he has one in lizard skin that is as red as red can be.

Chris, is it just me or do both these last photos have a band of blur / low contrast running roughly top to bottom on the righthand side of the frame? Looks about 2/3rd of the way toward the edge. Right on the flat cliff face in the b/w image and where the two big rocks (one light, one dark) meet in the color. Haven't noticed it your other shots with (I'm assuming?) the same Trip earlier in the thread, but kinda stuck out at me on these two.

Absolutely. I have looked at the lens, and cleaned it but there didn't seem to be anything that would account for it. I wonder if the wrist strap, which was not around my wrist, might have dangled in front of the camera and done this?

Odd -- I'd not have thought a wrist strap would do that, but perhaps a little mystery is a good thing now and again. Here's hoping it never returns!
