Welcome! Have to say that this is a very pretty camera. I just love old chrome film cameras with nice chrome rimmed lenses.

Just arrived on my doorstep yesterday. "Honestly honey, it just followed me home!" Interesting camera from the year before I was born. This one is in good shape for a nearly 60 year old camera, but could stand for a bit of cleaning. Another inexpensive camera to experiment with for a while.

There's a rumor an Olympus 35 RC may be coming by in the next few days.60 year old? Looks like a solid mid 30's
Beware of cameras following you home, they tend to bring their friends and acquaintances over.
I have a K1000 but haven't used it in a long time. Focussing instead on Olympus & Nikon film kit & lenses. Recently acquired an old 200/f4 Super-Takumar and marvelled at its build quality (particularly the jet-black finish & knurling on the focus-ring). Started trawling the web for more - picked up this Spotmatic & 55/1.8 + a 135/3.5.
Great little camera! Enjoy it. I've had mine for over 40 years, and to be honest, it's probably the only camera I ever really needed.Just pulled this tiny beauty from the mailbox. About to go outside and snap a few test pics.
