Olympus Superzoom 110
You can find an in-depth review of this camera, here:
Olympus Superzoom 110 – Deceptively Capable
Lens: 38 -110mm f/3.8-8.1 10 elements, 8 groups
Film speed settings: 100-3200 ISO, DX coded
Film Format: 35mm
Shutter: 2 to 1/500 sec
Aperture: f/3.8 – f/26
Focusing: Active Autofocus, min 0.6m
Light Meter: Automatic 3 zone light metering
Battery: 2 x CR123A
Flash: Built-in
Year: 1990’s
Country: Japan
The good:
• Camera is film tested, exposure is good, as is focus.
• The lens is of a good quality, yielding pleasant images.
• Focus locking, night modes, remote operation and a timer makes this a surprisingly capable camera.
• Weather proofing provides some piece of mind.
• CR123A batteries are easy to find.
The less good:
• General wear and tear, and small crack in top screen cover. Does not affect use.
• At the beginning of the film test, there was a small light leak in the top left of the frame. As the roll progressed, it lessened, before disappearing. The transient nature of the leak implies it is a shutter issue, as the fact that it disappeared as the roll progressed, implies that it is due to the camera probably not having been used in 20 years or so. I imagine that regular use will keep it to a minimum.
