Camera looks in very good shape. Placed an hearing aid battery (with
cardboard shim around it) and the meter sprang to life. Seals look good
and a 49mm shade fits the lens, cool.
Have it loaded with Fuji Xtra 400 for this weekend. |

Had one for a while, it's a great camera with a nice viewfinder, but too bulky for my tastes. BTW that shade will probably mask part of the rf spot and/or the viewfinder, you need a vented one.

Yes, the hood is in the way, but I can still frame a shot, and will be looking
for a vented hood, thanks.  |

If you don't find a vented hood a less wide hood is a better; just a straight tube model covers only a small edge and is very usefull for this camera. |

I usually buy vented hoods on ebay from one of the many Hong Kong sellers: they are very well made, and very cheap (usually with free delivery too). The only problem is it takes ages for them to get here.

Paul, thanks.
Moira, no, hoods are in different diameters. I think the 35RC was 43.5mm
or 46.5mm, can't remember exactly, but that hood fits the Trip 35, too.
The 35SP uses a standard 49mm that are all over the 'bay. I think the
vented one would look spiffy if I can find it. |

Click here to see on Ebay
Last week I shot an entire 24exp roll of air through the Trip I have. 
The counter was on '4' and thought I had film in it, didn't pay attention to
the rewind knob moving, and blew away some (what I hoped) were early
morning shots with beautiful lighting. |

Yes, a straight short hood is the only way to go with the Oly-35 SP. I can
frame shot, not focus one with the hoods I have.  |

Well, I had Walmart develop the roll since these were test shots of my
usual test scenes, but the scans on the Epson 4490 aren't half-bad:
SEP conversion of first shot
and a couple verticals, first one has a little flare on the right, didn't use a hood:
last shot at f2.8
The tunnel shot was with the Auto setting (f-stop and shutter rings set to
'A') and shot the Fuji Xtra 400 at box speed. I'm thinking there are no issues
with the meter using the hearing aid batt.
Apology to Big Dawg for shooting the park again! |

Last week I was in a second hand shop. Some lovely little thing was staring at me and I couldn't let it there. When I said that I was curious to try if the camera was still working the price was immediatly set down from € 3.= to € 2,=, and I had my first Olympus Trip. Good condition and seems fully working! Still have to put a film in it. |

Minolfan, the Trip is one of my absolute fave cameras, you're in for a treat.
For night shooting set it at f2.8, Fuji 400 film, and whatever zone focus and
snap away.
Here's one, Night-Tripping:
