Fully automatic autofocus camera offering full-frame (24x36mm) and half-frame (17x24mm) formats and two focal lengths.

A 35mm f/3.5 lens and 60mm f/5.6 telephoto lens are built-in. By using the optional teleconverter, the 60mm lens becomes a 75mm lens (110mm for half-frame format). When the camera is turned off, the lens retracts into the camera body. Pressing the shutter button extends the lens immediately. The direct viewfinder has variable magnification and gives a clear image.

The viewfinder’s image area and magnification are adjusted to suit the picture size and focal length used. The viewfinder also has an AF frame, parallax correction marks, and an OK-to-Shoot lamp.
