Introductory Paragraph The Olympus PEN-EE.2 is the epitome of "point-and-shoot" simplicity combined with professional-grade optics. This specific unit (S/N: 3291612) belongs to the second generation of the EE series, which introduced the convenient hot shoe for flash photography. The 28mm lens provides a field of view equivalent to approximately 40mm in full-frame terms, making it incredibly versatile for street photography, candid portraits, and travel documentation. Because it is purely mechanical and powered by the sun, the EE.2 is a "forever camera"—it won't let you down due to a dead battery, and its vertical frame orientation encourages a fresh, modern approach to film composition.

Condition Report Good condition. The camera body (S/N: 3291612) shows normal signs of light use and minor cosmetic surface wear consistent with its vintage age. The Olympus D.Zuiko 28mm f/3.5 lens is optically clear, free from fungus, haze, or significant scratches. The selenium meter is active and accurate; the "red flag" indicator correctly prevents shots in insufficient light. The aperture blades are clean and responsive. The film advance thumb-wheel and shutter button operate smoothly. The light seals are in good condition, providing a secure, light-tight environment for your film.

Specialist Note "The EE.2 is often the favorite of the PEN series for purists who love the classic aesthetic. What I love about this S/N: 3291612 is how the 28mm f/3.5 lens renders—it has a beautiful, vintage contrast that makes colors look incredibly rich on stocks like Kodak Portra. The fixed-focus nature of this camera is its greatest strength; you are always 'in focus,' which allows you to focus entirely on the moment and the composition. It's a rugged, joyful piece of engineering that turns a single roll of film into a massive library of 72 memories. It’s the perfect companion for anyone who wants to document their life without the weight of a traditional SLR."
