Hello.
I should have a spare 35RC in storage if you are interested. We will need direct contact if you want pictures, since the programme No.2 son tried so I can use the format on the forum failed for whatever reason |

Thanks for the offer, but I'm looking more for a half-frame camera. It could be fixed lens, such as an Olympus Pen EED, or EE-S. |

Hello.
Of course! What was I thinking? Sorry-pardon. A quick look at my hi-tech card index suggests I might still have an original 'pen', and EE2/EE3 models. I'll run a check. I never did record all 276 cameras I moved on to a dealer a while back! |

Barnum, I've got an EES-2 that is missing the indicator and glass window for the frame counter, and the frame around the viewfinder port, but the rest is there. I picked this up just as a display piece because at one time in it's life it had been moist (lens is all water spotted). But the shutter still works, and the aperture blades still open and close, and all the rings on the lens body still turn. And there's a slight dent in the filter ring that I haven't bothered to pound out yet.

I've looked at the various models a bit further, and what I am really seeking is a clean lens on a Pen EED. The body/shutter, etc, can be broken, the aperture can be seized, even some lens fungus and dust is OK, just not too many scratches on the lens! |

Robertro, just realized I got the names mixed up on my last post. Are the lenses on the EED and EES-2 all that different? Mine is a D. Zuiko 2.8/30. It's okay if you don't want this one, I kinda like the looks of it, and would hate to see it parted out. Unless I had another one that needed a part.

The Pen EED has a lens a lot like the Pen D had, doesn't it? I don't know if it's the same, though. |

Yes, the PEN EED and PEN D have similar lenses. I'd prefer an EED, but a D would work! |

I had a broken Pen D2 with I think a good lens, but I put it away and don't remember where over ten years ago. I'll look for it. |

Super - I look forward to hearing from you! I have a couple of cabinets full of camera lenses and bits, and I believe they multiply when I am not looking! |

Mine multiply too, but they also go for walks and sometimes I find them in the strangest places  |
