Olympus Pen D 35mm Half-Frame Compact - Good Condition | Classic Japanese Half-Frame with Fast F.Zuiko 40mm f/1.9 Lens

The Olympus Pen D is one of the most desirable and collectable entries in the legendary Pen series — a beautifully engineered half-frame compact that stands apart from its siblings thanks to its exceptionally fast F.Zuiko 40mm f/1.9 lens. Designed by the legendary Yoshihisa Maitani, the Pen D was aimed at the more serious amateur photographer who wanted the convenience of half-frame shooting without compromising on low-light capability. Shooting two exposures on every standard 35mm frame, it delivers 72 exposures per roll while the fast f/1.9 lens ensures beautiful results even in challenging light. A genuinely special and sought-after classic that deserves to be shot, not shelved. Serial number SR 250063.
