E-P1 old school

I love the look of that camera especially with the evf.

 

I have the same setup and it's a joy to use.

 

That's a sweet setup for the street.

 

Hey, talk about reminiscing about viewfinders. Here's a picture of my first camera, which my dad gave to me in the late 1970s. He acquired it circa 1950 in Germany. There's no rangefinder or exposure meter, so you had to guesstimate. BTW, the camera is in great shape and still works today. :smile:

Walt,

That little round vf would look fine on my E-p1. Let me know if you need my address!

Very nice indeed. Nice base it's sitting on too.

 

Hmmmmmm...... I never thought of that Steve. I wonder how the viewfinder would work with a 24mm or 28mm lens. I'll have to experiment!

P.S. I probably won't need your address. :tongue: This baby is a family heirloom and a keeper!

 

Wow! That looks really vintage and elegant! I'm gonna get the skin too! Thanks!

 

Great looking combo for sure. A couple of weeks ago when I got my E-PL1, my wife (who is a complete non-photographer,) said, "This looks like an old style camera," or something to that effect. I said, "Yep, that's the idea."  

I think the Pens are easily some of the best looking cameras around. I've never been one for a camera's style being any factor at all in my purchase but it doesn't hurt ;-)
