Vintage camera collectors will not want to miss out on the Olympus PEN EE 35 mm half-frame film cameras. These pocket-sized cameras allow the user to get twice the number of pictures from a roll of film in portrait orientation. This Olympus model is easy to operate because it has a single setting, and you are ready to shoot. This PEN EE model has a manual lens aperture setting and two shutter speeds. There is a tripod mount on the base of the camera, and it has a hot shoe connection for a flashgun. The product's measurements are 4 inches by 2inches by 1 inches, and it weighs 1 pound. The Olympus-Pen branding is engraved in white on the front, EE-3 is stamped on the top, and Made in Japan is stamped on the bottom.The camera incorporates a D.Zuiko 28 mm 1:3.5 fixed focus lens, which has selenium metering and auto exposure capabilities. The aperture is f/3.5-22, while the shutter is 1/40 in auto mode and 1/200 in standard mode. It uses a filter thread of 43.5 mm and a frame size of 24 x 18 millimeters. Users will also appreciate having many shots in a single roll as Olympus PEN EE-2 offers 72 photos on a 36-exposure roll. In addition, photographers will also like the widescreen feeling due to its traditional frame size, which is also popular with production teams in the mainstream entertainment industry.The metering and auto-exposure will help photographers fine-tune their skills as the viewfinder indicates a red flag during less than optimum exposures. Olympus has copied the metering from this model in its later models due to the effective performance achieved in most outdoor conditions. Similarly, the device is versatile enough to allow for numerous flash settings in a quasi-manual mode at 1/40.It has a four-element, three-group fixed-focus lens, which offers extremely sharp images at most distances. For landscape photography, make sure that you are at least 2 meters away from the subject to get maximum results. Photographers can also use depth of field to reach a range of 1.5 meters to infinity. In fact, Olympus PEN EE 35 mm Half Frame Camera is very compact and uses an extremely durable lens. It provides a very sharp, fixed-focus photo quality and doubles the shots on a roll. Users are automatically going to achieve superb results between 3 and 5 meters, which is practical for indoor environments.The idea of portable, compact-scale cameras using a 35-mm film became so popular that other Japanese makers copied the Olympus design. Lots of derivatives of PEN followed, including EES and EES-2, and the EE design, integrated with exposure automation, became a hallmark of the Olympus series. The EE design is made for efficiency, which is evident from a shutter speed of almost 1/60 of a second. Because of the automatic exposure adjustment, users can take professional pictures with a single click of a button.
