While having a single focal length lens, this member of the esteemed Big Finder (BF) series of AF compact cameras has a large viewfinder and is easy to operate.

All the elements in the bright 35mm f/3.8 lens are molded glass (GMo). The built-in flash is powerful, covering out to ten meters. The large viewfinder is easy to use, and an oversized shutter button and other controls result is a very easy-to-use camera.

The white gold exterior gives the design a high quality image.
