This is another great fixed lens 35mm point and shoot in Canon's Sure Shot Autoboy series. The Sure Shot Max (aka Prima 5) features a nice 38mm f3.5 lens that retracts when the camera switched off.

We love this camera's simple three-way switch on the back to control the flash (Flash/No Flash/Red-eye reduction); this is great if you want to prevent the flash from going off (like when taking photos at a museum). 

Battery info

This camera requires a CR123A lithium battery (available as an option). 

Condition notes

We film tested this camera and it delivered sharp, correctly exposed photos (the colours are somewhat off in the included scans due to our own development error--doh--but it's not the camera's fault). All functions are working correctly. We also verified the camera's autoexposure accuracy using a calibrated light source and shutter tester. The camera is in very good cosmetic condition (see photos). A Canon case is included but is in somewhat worn condition (see photo).
