That was my first camera which started me in photography until this day. This was back I believe, in 1979. I had been recently married and going to Disney World. I had no idea how to use it so I bought a couple of then $1.50 Kodak booklets called the Here’s How books and got hooked into Photography. About 25 years later, wondering what I ever did with the camera, a co-worker one day said to my that he still had the camera that I had sold to him. He said he never used it. I bought it back from him for $20. It came with the original manual and cover. It’s still looks brand new. I have much to be grateful to this camera. me

I've used the sp35 for years and now have the black version, awesome camera and lens. Particularly great for fast street photography in auto mode.

My wife got hers as a 21st B'day present, from Japan, its still in near-mint condition.

Keep in mind that rangefinders sometimes shift out of proper calibration and need to be adjusted. If that's the case, no matter how perfectly you'll focus the rangefinder patch in the viewfinder, your photos will still end up slightly out of focus.

[@anthonyhitchings1051]

they are actually adjustable - its just not in the user manual (hint: KZbin reviews)

Interesting camera, how does this compare to the Olympus Trip?

Fun and useful information Thank you

[@dhirajshetty483]

How do you compose with the Tape please ?

[@paultaylorphotography9499]

cracking video mate nice sample shots, I have the oly 35SP, love it to bits I made some of my fave episodes using this camera it's stunning. I do have a slight issue with it at the moment with a film winding problem that I'm trying to iron out. I like to use a handheld meter with mine works a treat. Liked and subbed kind regards Paul.

[@aarondaniels815]

Are you still using this camera? If so, how does it hold up?

[@tonywu5571]

The tape trick is ingenious !!! Thanks for sharing ❤

If you are having focusing problems, your rangefinder may be misaligned.
