In this issue, we would like to introduce the paste leather of the OLYMPUS manual film half-size camera released in 1962.
OLYMPUS PEN-D (Reference product)
Pasted leather with a square-based design unique to OLYMPUS half cameras is attached with a bracket.

The border between the front body and the film chamber lid on the shutter side is firmly attached to the paste leather thanks to the integrated paste leather bracket from the front side.

The border between the front body and the film chamber lid on the opposite side is also fitted with paste leather in the same manner as the shutter side.

The paste leather bracket on the film chamber lid is affixed with the same design as the front.

This time we introduced the pasted leather of OLYMPUS film half-size camera released in 1962.
Although the year of release is the reverse of the EE-3 we introduced last time, the pasted leather of this design will continue from this D.
It is a sophisticated design that is hard to believe that this camera is about 60 years old now.
