The Canon Sure Shot Joy is an easy-to-use auto focus 35mm camera from the late 1980s. It features a sharp 35mm f4.5 lens (3 elements in 3 groups). It also features a very novel 'burst mode' option where you can select 2,3, or 4 shots to fire in sequence with a single press of the shutter--very handy for capturing action.

Options
If you pick '+ battery', a 2CR5 6V lithium battery will be installed. If you choose '+ battery & film', you'll receive a 24 exposure roll of Fujicolor 200 film.

Condition notes
All camera features were tested with a battery and film installed (the film was not developed) and is working great. There was a small chip on the side of the camera (purely cosmetic) that we repaired with epoxy putty and enamel, otherwise the aesthetic condition of the camera is very good (see photos) with only minimal wear on the body.
