Canon Sure Shot Mega Zoom 76 35mm camera
Note: The strap lug for this camera broke off (a common issue for this generation of Canon camera) which means you can't attach a neck strap. Otherwise this camera is excellent working condition. It also includes a case which does have a neck strap.
The Canon Sure Shot Mega Zoom 76 is a very sophisticated 35mm point-and-shoot from the early 1990s featuring a 38-76mm f/3.8-7.2 lens (7 elements in 7 groups) with excellent sharpness for its class.
This camera requires a 2CR5 lithium battery (available as an option).
Condition notes
All camera features were tested with a battery and film installed (the film was not developed) and it working great. Apart from the strap lug mentioned above, the cosmetic condition of the camera is also very good (see photos). Both the included original case and user manual are in in well worn but serviceable condition.
