The aperture ring on the 35C is similarly placed but the shutter speed dial
(1/8 - 1/500 & B) is on top of the body, just about where a focal plane
shutter dial is situated on non-OM cameras. The body shells are the same
size but the lens barrel is smaller and a bit shorter, I think, on the 35RC,
making it more compact when worn on a strap under a jacket as I do.
