THE OLYMPUS 35 IS A NEAT MINIATURE CAMERA.....
It takes 20 or 36 exposures of standard double frame pictures on a cartridge of 35
mm film. Light, compact and ever-ready construclion makes handling simple . . . no
Iextension or opening is required. The OLYMPUS 35 is suitable for taking snaps
around the house or on trips.
No range finder is needed with the great focal distance of the 4 crn " ZVIKO
COATED " lens. For example, if you set the red mark on the iris-diaphragm in line
with the 24(ft) marked in red on the focus regulator, all subjects more than 12 tt
away will be brought into sharp focus. Furthermore, the moderate angle and the
fine definition of this color-corrected " ZUIKO " lens makes the camera especially
suitable for color photography.
The film winder is equipped with an automatic stopper which prevents double
exposure. A flash synchronizer is also built in. Speed variation of the " COPAL " tlu, rfrc, rfzs, rfso, 1frc0.- rfzoo, sec.shutter are: B, l, 'lr,
