Olympus 35 SP 135/35mm Rangefinder Film Camera

The Olympus 35 SP is one of the most celebrated compact 35mm rangefinders ever made — produced from 1969 to 1976, it remains the only 35mm rangefinder to feature a switchable centre-weighted and spot metering system. Paired with a razor-sharp G.Zuiko 42mm f/1.7 lens and offering both full auto and manual exposure control, the 35 SP is a serious tool for the discerning film photographer.
