Note: This Sure Shot 60 Zoom has an issue where the viewfinder display doesn't zoom in (it stays at the default 38mm position). This doesn't affect photos but you need to be mindful if you decide to zoom in the lens, the actual photo framing be narrower than the viewfinder display. 

The Canon Sure Shot 60 Zoom (called the Prima Shot Zoom or Autoboy Juno in some countries) is a good quality zoom point-and-shoot from the mid-1990s. It features a well-designed 38-60mm lens (6 elements in 6 groups) and very accurate 5-point autofocus..

The camera requires a CR123 lithium battery (optional).

Condition notes
All camera features were tested with a battery and film installed (the film was not developed) and apart from the viewfinder zoom issue mentioned above, it's working great. We also tested the camera's film plane focus accuracy on an autocollimator. The camera has some cosmetic wear (see photos).
