Olympus AZ-200 Superzoom 35mm Point and Shoot film camera with 38-80mm zoom lens
Description:
We like the AZ-200 for having a feature set that genuinely surprises you the more you explore it. Released in 1989 as part of Olympus's AZ Superzoom series, it was notably cited by Popular Photography as the first compact zoom camera in the history of flash photography to significantly reduce red-eye, a practical achievement that was ahead of its time. Beyond that, it has switchable spot metering for precise exposure control, a multi-flash strobe mode for creative effects, continuous shooting, a 12-second self-timer, and a shutter range from 1 second all the way to 1/500s that makes it genuinely capable in low light without flash. The 38-80mm Olympus zoom lens covers a very useful everyday range in a solid, comfortable body. A compact that quietly delivers far more than most cameras of its era.
