Chronology of cameras Carena 

The Carena brand is registered in the early 1950s by Coop, a Swiss distribution group resulting from the merger of several companies.
It concerns photographic equipment. It is renewed several times by Coop, then by Interdiscount, a subsidiary of Coop specializing in the sale of electronic and photographic equipment.

Interdiscount
was created in 1970 and relies on a dense network of branches. In 1973, there were 42 branches throughout Switzerland. Abroad, Interdiscount relies on existing networks. In Germany, in the early 1980s, Interdiscount acquired shares in the struggling company Photo Porst.

__________

By wanting to use too many superlatives, manufacturers and distributors quickly lost the meaning of words. Is "Super" better than "Power" when the "Mini" could have better features? This "Power Zoom" seems quite outdated when you realize that while it is indeed a zoom, it lacks adjustable focus.

This model is comparable to the Halina Silhouette Zoom.
