Olympus 35RC A small compact 35mm film camera that incorporates a rangefinder. I used it until the advent of digital. Clean and in good working order. A manual is available on web. This camera used a PX625 Mercury battery which is no longer available, but works perfectly with equivalents such as S625 or LR9. See, for example, http://www.smallbattery.company.org.uk/sbc_s625px.htm for a UK supplier. Here is a description from Ken Rockwell site: The Olympus 35RC is a 35 mm rangefinder camera manufactured by Olympus in Japan in the 70s. It claimed to be the smallest 35 mm rangefinder with automatic exposure control and manual override.

Minox 35 GT The Minox 35 GT is a lovely small and very quiet camera that produces sharp results on 35mm film. I used this alongside other film cameras until I finally “went digital”. A manual is available on the web. This camera used a PX27 mercury battery which is no longer available but replacements are readily available. See, for example, http://www.smallbattery.company.org.uk/sbc_s625px.htm for a UK supplier. Here is a description of the camera from Wikipedia: Background Information The Minox 35 GT, introduced in 1981, continued Minox's successful range of 35mm compact cameras, reputedly the smallest full-frame 35mm cameras ever made. The lens retracts into the camera body when closed, fully opening the cover activates the battery. Exposure is automatic, aperture priority. Different models in the Minox 35 range were identified by shutter release buttons in differing colours: the GT is easily identified by its yellow shutter release button. The GT improved features of its predecessors, the EL and the GL. It introduced an electronic self-timer, with a flashing LED above the camera's name. Another improvement on the previous models is the siting of the cable release socket to the side of the shutter release button, to prevent accidental triggering of the shutter.

Pentax MZ-S Pentax MZ-S 35mm film camera. This was the last “flagship” film camera that Pentax made and is a solid quick and compact SLR. I have owned it since new and used it alongside other cameras. Any Pentax lover will tell you that it’s a great camera. I have recently tested with perfect (technically, not artistically!) results. The camera records data between the film sprockets and I was surprised to discover that my test was only the camera’s 57th film! The camera comes boxed with the manual and all of the original bits and pieces apart from the small cover for the flash sync socket on the side. Ian – this info came from another one for sale on ebay. Is that OK?

Pentax ME Winder I was given this with the camera and have not used it. There is a small lug missing from the battery cover, but, as far as I can tell, the winder works with a small piece of tape to hold the cover tight. I have not tested it with a camera.
