Olympus Trip 35 35mm Point and Shoot Film Camera with 40mm f2.8 Lens
Description:
What makes the Trip 35 special is its complete independence from batteries. The selenium cell ring that surrounds the lens harvests ambient light to power the fully automatic exposure system, meaning this camera has been ready to shoot since the day it was made, with no battery to replace or worry about. Released in 1967 and produced for 17 years, it sold over 10 million units worldwide, making it one of the most successful cameras ever made, and for good reason. The 40mm f2.8 D.Zuiko lens is sharp and characterful, producing images with a warm, analogue quality that suits the camera's spirit perfectly. In A mode the camera selects between its two shutter speeds and sets the aperture automatically. If there isn't enough light, a red flag appears in the viewfinder and the shutter locks, so you never waste a frame. Zone focus via pictograms on the lens keeps things simple. A joyful, reliable, and genuinely unique camera that is perfect for travel, everyday life, and anyone who wants to shoot film without any complications at all.
