Very nice shot. The horse kind of looks like it's posing for the shot

So I was looking into Olympus Trip 35 recently... Then I went and started looking at other 35mm compact cameras and eventually happened upon this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262211046164

I know it is more than I should be spending on it probably, but my God is it pretty.

Complete hipster right?

Look lovely - never used a rangefinder so not sure how the experience differs from what I am used to. Reading up, the battery may need an adapter so something to consider. I often see lovely film cameras I would like (Yash, Rollie or Mamiya TLR is on my list) but given how I have too little time to use the cameras I do have at present, buying more isn't the best idea !

[speedlolita]

Yeah the battery thing shouldn't be an issue for me. Only concern really is customs... There's a regular GT in the UK for the same price without postage but I feel like one from Japan will be in better condition... lol

I like rangefinders but not used one for about 35 years - Olympus 35RC.

Good luck with it if you get it. With Garf I'd like to get something film, always wanted a Pentax LX or Fuji AX-5 but just don't have the time to use it.

Go for it - at the very least it'll make a nice display piece



Not the best light this morning, but at least it's stopped raining.

Spotted one at auction in the UK in better condition, with lens cap and case so I'll bid in that I think. Glad I waited a bit!

Found a post 1978 Olympus Trip 35 in really nice condition, with lens cover for sub ?20 posted. Considering there isn't the battery issue to worry about, I think this one makes the most sense to start with.

Great shot Petej, really like the shadows on the grass, gives the foreground some nice depth and features.
