Tele Trek - Going Really Tight With the Olympus Pen F



As regular readers of this blog will know, I am very attached to my Olympus Pen F half-frame SLR. These photos are from a roll which was exposed last summer. Most of the photos are made with a Pentacon (?) 200 mm lens - since sold - which makes it a 300 on a half-frame camera. The lens was larger than the camera body! but the kit was nowhere near being heavy or bulky.




One can't expect tack-sharp photographs neither from half-frame negatives or the lens. Never mind.





The church is in Uppsala - where also Sweden's oldest university is situated.



On a sunny day getting decent exposure times wasn't a problem. Once indoors I had to find support to be able to make long exposures.






As I said - there are students in Uppsala...

Great Grey

Till vänster är min flitigt använda Olympus XA - en kompakt kamera med slutarautomatik men med manuell bländare och skärpeinställning. Till höger är en raritet - en XA2 i begränsad upplaga från mitten av 80-talet. / The XA2 on the right is a collector's dream. It's a limited edition auto-exposure camera with great lens and exposure.
