Canon Snappy QT 35mm camera (serial 3479969)
The Canon Snappy QT is a basic but good quality compact 35mm film point-and-shoot from the late 1990s. It features a wide-angle 32mm focus-free lens and a very large, bright viewfinder. The camera is fully automatic except for special flash modes (cancel flash and daylight fill flash) and its self-timer.
This camera requires two AA batteries (not included).

Condition notes
The camera was tested with batteries and film installed and all functions are working correctly (the film was not developed however). The camera is in good cosmetic condition (see photos). We verified the camera's autoexposure accuracy with a shutter tester and calibrated light source.
