Workshop Special Price

Every vintage camera has its own story, and every now and then one arrives with a little more character than most.

Our Workshop Special Price collection features fully refurbished Olympus Trip 35 cameras that meet the same high mechanical and optical standards as every camera we sell, but have cosmetic imperfections that prevent them from joining our Mint or Excellent grade collection.

These may include small dents, scratches, signs of honest wear, or a little extra patina earned over decades of adventures. None of these cosmetic marks affect the camera’s performance… they’re simply part of its history.

Every Workshop Special camera has been completely serviced in our North Wales workshop, carefully tested, and is ready to enjoy for many more years of film photography. Any cosmetic imperfections are clearly shown in the photographs and described honestly within each listing, so you know exactly what you’re buying.

If you’re more interested in taking beautiful photographs than owning a museum piece, a Workshop Special offers exceptional value. You’ll receive the same expert refurbishment, the same careful testing, and the same attention to detail… just at a lower price.

After all, some of the best stories are written by cameras that have already lived a few.
