This is my first camera. I wonder how many of the Pen dinasty Olympus sold throughout its history. There were 19 different models produced from 1959 onwards for more than 20 years. It is a perfect compromise between quality and price from the techinical point of view. Design is elegant and functional. Finish is above any expectation for a popular camera. As it makes half frames with 35 mm, films look to last forever. I always used it in automatic, making exposure compensations tricking her with the ASA number. Very effective control before the DX readings of today's point and shoot. This specific model EES2 was produced between 1968 and 1971. Automatic exposure, meter around the lens, no batteries: perfect.
