Olympus Pen EF (Serial No. 1047049) - Good Condition | Pocket-Sized Half-Frame Icon with Built-In Flash The Olympus Pen EF is a legendary piece of analogue history, holding the distinction of being the final half-frame camera released in the famous Olympus Pen line. Capturing 72 vertical frames on a standard 36-exposure 35mm roll, it doubles your shooting capacity while encouraging creative diptych compositions. Armed with a wonderfully sharp D.Zuiko 28mm f/3.5 lens, this pocket-sized point-and-shoot handles exposure automatically through its signature light-sensitive selenium cell meter surrounding the glass. Designed for pure spontaneity, the Pen EF adds a built-in electronic flash to the classic Pen formula, making it the perfect choice for street, travel, and candid night photography. Effortless Half-Frame Economy: Doubles your film count, providing 72 photos per standard 36-exposure roll, allowing you to shoot freely without worrying about running out of film. Sharp D.Zuiko 28mm f/3.5 Lens: A high-quality, 4-element glass lens that delivers punchy contrast and classic vintage sharpness across your frames. Selenium Cell Automatic Exposure: Features an eco-friendly light meter that powers the automatic aperture and shutter speed program entirely via ambient light, requiring no battery for daytime operation. Integrated Electronic Flash: The pop-up flash provides immediate fill-light for indoor or nighttime shooting, adding great versatility to a compact frame. Focus-Free Simplicity: A fixed-focus system ensures everything from 1.4 meters to infinity stays sharp, making it a true, rapid point-and-shoot camera. Condition Report Body: Good condition. The lightweight black chassis shows light, honest signs of past use, including faint surface rubs and minor finish wear on the edges. The original leatherette is intact and securely adhered. (Serial Number: 1047049). Sensor/Optics: The viewfinder is bright with clear framing lines. The D.Zuiko lens optics are clean and clear, completely free from fungus, haze, or scratches. Mechanics/Electronics: Fully tested and functional. The selenium light meter responds accurately to changing light conditions, and the automatic low-light red warning flag rises correctly in the viewfinder to lock the shutter when light is insufficient. The film advance wheel rotates smoothly and the frame counter advances properly. The built-in flash charges and fires correctly. Specialist Note "The Pen EF is arguably the most fun and practical camera in the entire half-frame universe. Because the exposure meter is powered entirely by the selenium cell around the lens, you can shoot all day in the sun without ever needing a power source. The single AA battery is only there to juice up the flash when you need it. It's an absolute dream for casual daily documentation and creative diptych storytelling."
