Nice. I think I've got a Trip in the loft somewhere.

Re: Vintage film cameras
Better dig it out then! They are great little cameras and really easy to use. Leather was £6 from eBay, Milliyscameras was the seller. Does leather for various models. Will be reskinning the FX-D come pay day.

Re: Vintage film cameras
For low light you're going to need a fast lens regardless of the type of camera. I'm totally unfamiliar with Olympus but in Pentax there are plenty of f1.4 Takumars around in M42 which are said to be very good, for around £50ish. At the risk of repeating myself, you'll really need something under f2 to have half a chance of using a reasonable shutter speed. f2.0 is one stop below f2.8, f1.4 is another stop lower. That and at least 400ISO film.

Re: Vintage film cameras
Without moving from my slouched slobbiness on the sofa, I think the OM 10 has an f1.8 lens fitted.

Re: Vintage film cameras
The new skin for the trip looks cool - although I did like the rising sun one you had on too.
Looks like there's a reasonable supply of OM 10 manual adapters on ebay for around £10-12. PM me re a price. |

Re: Vintage film cameras
Did you put any bids in on the Lynx Johnny?

Re: Vintage film cameras
No will keep looking for a busted one, or a Beauty Lightomatic II has the same shutter
