I got this in a lot sale, one of over a dozen P&S cams in the lot. But it had film in it, so it gets tested first. It’s the second one I’ve owned, and I expected it to perform as well as the first one. It didn’t let me down.
It has a 35-70mm f4.2-7.8 AF zoom lens, film sensitivity of 25-3200 ISO, Auto film transport, a built in flash, and date stamping. It looks like a slightly bigger Olympus Stylus, with the same type of sliding front door to turn on the camera, and deploy the lens and flash. The lens is very good for a Point and Shoot, with just a bit of vignetting.
Film is Fuji Superia 400, of which the first nine exposures were by the previous owner. Because of the personal nature of them, I won’t be posting any examples, but suffice it to say that I know the date stamp works.

I've always liked the look of these two buildings, but never seemed to be able to stop at the right time until yesterday.

I zoomed all the way out, then did some cropping too, as I got a bit too much sky in the original.

This use to make the Autumn Colors album quite often until they strung all these new cables and power wires last summer.

The small red maple is what caught my eye as I pulled into this empty lot.

Hi,
Just curiosity but what's the date stamped on them and were they OK? I figure the time between exposing and developing is important and this is the first chance I've had to find out.

15 2 22, Dave. The exposures were all good, just like the ones I took. It was a family birthday party for an elderly woman, so I don't want to post them anywhere. I may try to get in touch with someone in the area on Facebook to see if the people can be found so they can get the photos back.
