a new choice of weapon


I found this camera in my dad's shed on Saturday.
It is an Olympus range finder and was brought in his hand about 40 years ago.
It looked like it would still work so I put a film in it and took some photos.

Here are some of them.







Not too bad, huh?
They kind of smell of the Showa.

The problem is that some parts seem to have stopped working, which is fair enough for a 50 years old camera, and there is no way I can know how many frames are left unless I count and remember.
