Nikon Zoom 310AF 35mm camera with case
Nikon Zoom 310AF 35mm camera with case
The Nikon Zoom 310 AF is an ultra compact and high quality 35mm film point-and-shoot. It was the world's most compact camera of its zoom range (35-70mm) when was released.
This camera requires a CR123A lithium batter for power (optional). The original Nikon leather case is included.
Condition notes
The camera was tested with a battery and film installed and performed well (the film was not developed). We needed to replace the little plastic cover over the LCD display on the top of the camera (see photos), otherwise it is in excellent cosmetic condition.
