The 35RC is much simpler and easier to adjust, most of them are fine.
I will rate it as the most reliable Olympus 35mm compact camera. But
you have to pay high (around $100-120) for a really good cosmetic one
as most of them are well used and some even have scratched lens.
Unfortunately it only has a f2.8 lens and shutter goes to 1/15s only
(except B). The SP and RD has much larger shutter range and large
aperture lens. On the other hand most 35RD I have seen were very good
in cosmetic, as most of them failed in its early age due to oil
shutter problem.
