Bought an Olympus Trip 35 from an eBay seller, described as 'Pristine'. Had a lot of fun shooting with it this weekend (Mostly Jazz, Funk & Soul Festival in Brum). First film camera in an age.
Got the photos back and most of them have severe light leak, the ones that do not are under exposed. Gutted. On examining the camera it doesn't have any light seals (looks as though they've been removed, camera cleaned up, but not replaced) and the aperture blades are sticky and not opening properly. Trying to sort it out with the seller at the moment, but they're being resistant.
Anyway... These are some of the better ones without leak and the exposure fiddled with on Lightroom. Going to buy a serviced Trip as they're so much fun
