So I have a quick question, I'm thinking about picking up an old Olympus rangefinder camera which is advertised in a local classified ad for quite a lot cheaper than the going rate on ebay (as is often the case with local ads for photography kit). I'm wondering what I should look out for if I was to go ahead with the purchase in terms of things to check before handing over the money as I'm not sure what usually goes wrong with this kind of camera. It's not a lot of money so it's not exactly a disaster if it doesn't work when I get it home but all the same I'd prefer to know that I'm buying a working camera, particularly as these rangefinders look like quite fun toys and a bit different to SLRs.
