My favorite piece! this small camera is awesome, it got half frame format so with 36 film I can make into 72 frame.

The original Pen was introduced in 1959. It was designed by Yoshihisa Maitani, and was the first half-frame camera produced in Japan. It was one of the smallest cameras to use 35mm film in regular 135 cassettes. It was thought to be as portable as a pen; thus the name. The idea was to be much copied by other Japanese makers.

The Pen EE was introduced in 1961 and was the amateur model, with fully automatic exposure and fixed focusing. It is a true point and shoot camera, and has a 28mm f/3.5 lens. The Pen EE family is easily recognized by the selenium meter window around the lens. For this Pen EE-3 produced from 1973 to 1983.

Olympus Trip 35

Olympus Trip 35

Kamera untuk traveling yang pas dibawa kemana - kemana ini cukup handal dengan film 35 dan sangat populer di masa nya, diperkenalkan pada tahun 1967 dan berhenti diproduksi pada tahun 1985, puncak kepopulerannya adalah pada tahun 1970an disaat David balley memakainya. Dengan lensa Zuiko 40mm f/2.8 dengan lapisan 3 elemen membuat kamera ini cocok dipakai dalam kesempatan apapun terutama pada saat berpergian, hingga sesuai namanya "Trip" menjadikan kamera ini adalah kamera liburan yg penting untuk dibawa saat itu, karena selain praktis, berat yg hanya 390gr penggunaannya pun cukup mudah, cukup cocokkan ISO, tarik tuas dan jepret saja.
