The DC was sold in extremely small numbers.  In the last 20+ years I've seen
fewer than 5 for service.

acccording to Cameraquest http://www.cameraquest.com/olyrd.htm, the DC is an
RD without manual operation:

Olympus 35 DC: a  modified RD with the same body, lens and rangefinder
AE operation only, no manual override
Battery test added near the rear eyepiece
Viewfinder shows both the selected f/stop and shutter speed
Back light compensation adds 1 1/2 stops to the exposure
GN guide system now set by a dial on the top plate
Hot shoe or PC connection
An interesting design and a viable alternative to the RD if you can do
without the manual over-ride
