Olympus XA

The Olympus XA is a full frame rangefinder with a bright 35mm lens and aperture priority exposure, light weight and small enough to fit in your pocket. This is not the specifications of many a dream camera, it’s those of the Olympus XA – nothing short of a pocket marvel. Designed by Yoshihisha Maitani – famed creator of the Olympus Pen and OM–1 cameras and later also the Mju line – the Olympus XA was launched in 1979. The little camera was widely regarded as an impressive achievement. It has a sharp 35mm f2.8 lens, an ASA dial from 25 to 800 and a flash that can be screwed on or off the tiny camera body. A perfect 35mm camera for daily use.

Our collection consists of quality cameras. All of our cameras go through an excessive investigation of functioning. This includes testing of the shutter, flash, winder and all other functionalities. We check if there are any signs of fungus or haze on the lens. After investigating we rate our cameras. They fit into 4 categories depending on the state of the exterior.

NEW OLD STOCK

NOS condition means that there are no signs of wear and the camera has never seen a roll of film. It is "brand new" out of the box with it's original packaging. Please take in mind that most of our cameras are older than 30 years and accessories like manuals or boxes can show signs of wear after that time period.

MINT

Mint condition means that there are no signs of wear and the camera is "like new". Please take in mind that most of our cameras are older than 30 years and accessories like manuals or boxes can show signs of wear after that time period.

NEAR MINT

GOLD
