Originally posted by skierd In theory my Olympus 35 RD is the superior camera to my Electro 35 GSN, but I like the Electro more. I'm actually thinking about posting the Oly in the marketplace as I really don't need 4 rangefinders and now 2 film slrs since I picked up a Spotmatic SP yesterday with a focal 35mm f2.8 mounted and a pair of Vivitar 400mm m42 preset lenses, one f5.6 the other f6.3. Pawn shop LBA is affordable at least..,
I am waiting for my Olympus 35 RC to arrive. $8.25 + shipping.
In the mean time, I got a twofer deal. Two Minolta Hi-Matics. One is the AF, the other a G2.
The G2 is broken. A very fine weak spring that puts pressure on the aperture control arm fell off.
Every shot I took was at about f:22. I took the bottom off and attempted to reset the spring, but it ended up sproinging off to somewhere, and so the camera is junk. Too bad, cuz I really kinda liked it.
Very underexposed, Fuji color 200 print film from the G2
And a couple from the AF on Ultrafine 100. and the flash does work! Yay.
