Chronology of cameras Canon

The Canon Snappy S is the fixed-focus version of the Canon AF-35 Jet, also introduced in France at the 39th International Photo Video Cinema Exhibition. The lens is a 4.5/35 mm, ensuring a sharpness zone from 1.5 meters to infinity. This compact has an integrated motor for loading, advancing, and rewinding the film. DX coding ensures exposure safety (100 and 400 ISO).

In the viewfinder, LEDs indicate the battery level and warn of the risk of blur in low light conditions. The two 1.5 volt batteries provide enough power for about fifty 24-exposure films.
Unlike the AF-35 Jet, the Snappy S features a rotating cover for lens protection. On the 35 Jet, the cover slides laterally.

This camera, which targeted the teenage market, is available in several very bright colors, but there is also a black version for those who want to appear serious.
