Discover the classic Olympus Pen FT, a compact and innovative half-frame SLR camera, paired with its versatile 38mm f/1.8 lens. Renowned for its unique design and ability to capture twice as many exposures on a standard roll of film, this camera offers a distinctive photographic experience.

The Olympus Pen FT model has known common issues. Our inspection addressed some, while others were not specifically tested against their critical failure modes:

• Film Advance: The film advance mechanism for this model can jam or require multiple strokes. This specific failure mode was not explicitly detailed in our operation checks.
• Light Meter: We confirmed the through-the-lens (TTL) light meter is working properly.
• Shutter: We confirmed the shutter operates correctly across its speeds. However, a specific detailed check for jamming or remaining open at slower speeds (e.g., 1/1, 1/2, 1/4 second) was not explicitly documented.
• Aperture (38mm f/1.8 Lens): We confirmed the aperture mechanism operates correctly. A specific detailed check for sluggish blades or incomplete stop-down due to oil seepage, which can be a common issue, was not explicitly documented for the lens.

No accessories are included. The camera body only.

This product is NOT recommended for:

• Collectors or users seeking pristine optical condition: The lens and viewfinder exhibit moderate haze and fungus, which may affect image quality and viewing experience.
• Those requiring critical verification of all model-specific potential weaknesses: Specific tests for film advance jamming, slow shutter speed accuracy, or detailed aperture blade responsiveness (oil seepage) were not explicitly documented in our checks.
• Buyers unwilling to accept signs of use: The camera shows cosmetic signs of use consistent with its age.
