Olympus 35 RC vintage rangefinder camera review. A cheap camera with a decent lens worth your money?

I generally tend to like rangefinder style cameras, thus it wasn’t a hard choice for me to pick the Olympus 35 RC for my recent trip to Nepal as my analog option.
The Olympus 35 RC is a small, sturdy, but also a bit heavy camera that sports two modes: manual and shutter priority. Although I would have liked an aperture priority mode, as that is the mode I use most of the time on more modern cameras, I was quite satisfied with the results I got from this trip, visiting Kathmandu yet another time, and trekking in the Everest region, as well as towards the mountain of Mera Peak.
I can only recommend this camera which can be had for very little on places like eBay.

Great pictures! I just picked one up on Ebay. The camera's small size and relatively high quality lens appealed to me for touring and mountaineering objectives I'd like to document.

Some great photos, what black and white film were you shooting?

[@key2adventure]

I used Fomapan 100 that I semi stand developed in Rodinal for one hour with agitations every 15 minutes . Added a bit of contrast in post. That's my normal way of developing most film. I might get slightly better results by doing ordinary development, but if some images are slightly under- or overexposed, the stand development takes care of that.
