Up for sale here are two Olympus Pen FT camera, each with a 38mm f/1.8 standard lens.
Camera #1 "267XXX" -- all shutter speeds sound good to me, lens stops down properly, flash sync works, self-timer works, eyepiece frame intact. But in-camera meter is non-responsive. I tested it with a still-strong 625 mercury batter and got no reading. Also, the lens has a dent on the filter ring -- lens still focuses and operates just fine. I have a special tool that I could use to push out the dent if the buyer wishes, but with no guarantee that a filter would fit (if I had one of the right size, I could test, but I don't). So if you're looking for a Pen FT to try out, maybe do some triptychs etc, this is a good camera to start with. Comes with "F" script cap. $60 plus actual shipping.
Camera #2 "369XXX" -- Looks like it has spent most of its life in the case. All shutter speeds work, lens stops down properly, flash sync works, self-timer works, eyepiece frame intact, meter works great. Using the same 625 battery, I tested it against a Spectra-Combi reflective-reading meter and they matched exactly. Comes with case, strap (kinda stiff from age), flash shoe adapter, and "F" script lens cap. $100 plus actual shipping.
While these camera both work as described, I am selling them "as-is". No returns unless there is a major issue. First four photos are of Camera #1, last three are of Camera #2.
Paypal preferred. Let me know if you have any questions or need additional photos.
