This camera has a very interesting feature, especially for the forgetful persons who open their camera any time. With the easy loading (Drop Loading system) of a new film (DX coding from 50 to 1600 ISO) in 13 seconds, the 24 frames of a film are unwinded from the roll. Why? Any photo taken immediately goes back in the roll, thereby protecting the shots in the case of mistaken opening of the back.
The metering method of the exposure is also interesting because two cells pointed at the film meter all the time the exposure, including flash.
The flash is automatic, but can also be used manually for fill-in.
Power is provided by a lithium battery.
The focus is automatic up to 60cm. It is memorable. The exposure is automatic, programed from ¼ per sec to 1/400 per sec.
The lens is a f2.8/32mm, a little wide for a Family use.

DL stands for Drop-in Loading. It's a Fuji exclusive feature that simplifies the process of loading a new film into the brand's cameras. The film is placed in the camera after pulling out a bit of the leader, and then the back of the camera is closed. The film is automatically fed until the first frame.
This function is often associated with prewinding, meaning that when a new film is inserted, it is fully taken out of its cartridge and stored in a compartment. The film is gradually reintegrated into its cartridge after each shot. In case of accidental opening of the camera, the already exposed part of the film is always protected. At the end of the film, there is no need for rewinding since it is already in the cartridge. One can simply open the camera without fear of accidents.

In the early 1980s, Fuji filed numerous patents related to the loading process from both mechanical and electronic perspectives. One complexity involved the length of the leader extending from the film cartridge. In a typical film loading process, the user must slightly pull out the film, insert the tab into the receiving spool's slot, and correctly align the film perforations with the sprockets. The Drop-in Loading system eliminates all of these steps. Various solutions were considered, such as placing the cartridge in the back of the camera, loading from the bottom (similar to Leica), etc.

Fuji Photo Film Co. Ltd. filed a trademark application for DROP IN LOADING on November 12, 1982. It expired less than two years later.
