Olympus 35RC - A classic rangefinder film compact

Why not buy a used Olympus 35RC? The Olympus with its razor-sharp 42mm 2.8 lens and  modern film will give far better resolution than most digital cameras. Camerabase, on Edinburgh's Morningside Road is an ideal shop to start a search for classic film cameras.
If you shot one film a week and had it processed and scanned it would take many weeks to match the price of a digital. New digitals are worse than new cars when it comes to depreciation.

Olympus E-P2

The Olympus E-P2 is the second Micro Four Thirds camera from Olympus, following last Summer’s launch of the popular E-P1 model. Offering DSLR-like image quality in an ultra-compact format, the E-P2 adds a number of features to tempt you to upgrade from the E-P1. These include a dedicated port for either a detachable high-resolution electronic viewfinder or a microphone, auto-focus tracking mode, two new Art Filters (Diorama and Cross Process), a colour-boosting i-Enhance function, remote slideshow control via the new HDMI connection, and an option to record high-definition movies using the Manual shooting mode. The Olympus E-P2 is also finished in a more serious black rather than the silver or white versions of the E-P1.
