StandardDescription
A vintage 110 format pocket camera featuring a rectangular bar form-factor. The camera is equipped with a fixed-focus 1:8 optical lens and a built-in electronic flash. It is mechanically distinguished from simpler models by its ability to accept both 100 and 400 speed film via a sliding top switch. When set to 400 speed (represented by a "sun" icon), the camera slides a neutral density filter behind the lens to prevent overexposure. It also includes a low-light sensor that triggers a red LED in the viewfinder to signal when the flash should be switched on. The camera is powered by two AA batteries for the flash and exposure system and uses a standard thumb-winder for film advance.Category
