About the Olympus XA

The original Olympus XA (1979–1985) is a clamshell compact with a 35mm f/2.8 lens, true rangefinder focusing and aperture-priority exposure. It takes two SR44 batteries. The XA1–XA4 are simpler, different cameras and are excluded.

What affects the price

  • Whether it powers on, focuses and fires, and the lens cover opens and closes cleanly.
  • Battery door and compartment corrosion. A broken door is a common, price-killing flaw.
  • Scratches or haze on the lens, and working flash and date back.
  • Film-tested examples with sample photos sell for noticeably more than “untested”.
