bought a olympus trip 35 for $20
handsome! :D

later bought some small flashes for it

2010 vs 1967
bonnie ko's lumix gf2 vs olympus trip 35
this one cost me $10, made in 1969

pic from trip 35
"scissor diaphragm" gives 4-pointed sunstars

trip 35 got bokeh! :D

bought another EL2 + 50 f2 for $35

bought this EM for $25
EM is one of the smallest + lightest SLRs nikon made
here it's next to my trip

unfortunately there's a problem with the camera
the meter would trn off a few seconds after film advance
i opened it + tried to fix it, but failed
did replace some light seals + mirrow bumper with craft paper...
