Chinon 35 F-M 35mm Point & Shoot Film Camera with 38mm f2.8 Lens
Description:
We like the 35F-M for being a solid, practical, and comfortable camera to hold and use. Introduced around 1980, the F-M in the name stands for Flash/Motor, two features that set it apart from the manual-wind 35F-EE: a built-in electronic flash and a motorised film advance that automatically winds on after each shot. The 38mm f2.8 Chinonex Color lens is a sharp 4-element design, and the programmed auto exposure system selects the aperture automatically based on available light, with the chosen value visible on a needle scale in the viewfinder. Zone focus via four distance icons keeps things quick and easy. A battery check button and audible piezo buzzer confirm power status. A well-built and very practical everyday compact with a comfortable grip.
