Description from the seller

A legendary Olympus AF-1 Super 35mm analog compact camera is for sale, in an exceptional, nearly mint condition. This camera, known in Japan as “Zuiko-san,” was the world’s first weatherproof (splashproof) fully automatic compact camera and today enjoys absolute cult status among street photographers.

The heart of the camera is the extremely sharp and bright Olympus Zuiko 35mm f/2.8 lens. It delivers images with outstanding sharpness and beautiful contrast that easily compete with high-end cameras. The “Super” variant offers, compared to the standard model, an improved autofocus, a shorter minimum focus distance, and a more convenient flash control.

Thanks to the robust, splash-protected body, this point-and-shoot camera is the perfect, reliable companion for all weather conditions.

|| Condition: ||
-Optical: Nearly mint condition. There are virtually no signs of use. The body, viewfinder, and lens are in pristine condition.
-Technically: Fully functional. The autofocus engages precisely, the flash charges quickly and fires reliably, and the film transport runs perfectly. The lenses are completely clear, scratch- and fungus-free.

|| Contents (Inclusions) ||
— 1x Olympus AF-1 Super analog compact camera
— 1x Original Olympus AF-1 carrying case
— 1x Kodak PHOTOLIFE Lithium Battery K223LA
— 1x Original packaging (OP)
