The Olympus 35 RC is the smallest of the ones you suggest, but it only goes
down to 1/15 sec, plus B of course. I can get acceptable handhelds at 1/15
for 4x6 prints. However, imo, and in fairness, neither it nor the C*non
QLIII17 (very common) are worth the OM1n & 50/1.4 in value, so you better
withdraw the offer quick, especially on the RC, before I or someone else
takes you up on it. :-) On the other hand, if you get the rolle*, you've
done quite well in value, providing you don't have to actually use it :-)
If your 50/1.4 is >1.1m, then you might get a working 35RD (with cleaned
non-sticking shutter) and be right in the ball park for value.
