The Olympus Superzoom 70S (aka Olympus Accura Zoom XB700) is a high quality 35mm zoom point-and-shoot from circa 2002. Here's how it was described in its original brochure: 

The Accura Zoom XB700 also has a number of "convenient" features that make it a great camera choice. There's the sliding lens barrier that protects the camera's powerful optics from dust particles and scratches. There's the battery check feature that takes the guessing out of how much battery power you have left. And there's a built-in 12-second self-timer so you, too, can be a part of your pictures.

This camera requires two AA batteries (not included).

Features

  • Extra-large, bright viewfinder makes it easier to see—and frame—your subject
  • Fully automatic operation—focus, exposure, loading and rewinding
  • Sliding barrier protects lens against dust and scratches
  • Stylus Metallic Finish
  • Auto Flash with Red-eye Reduction
  • Convenient battery check
  • Built-in 12-second electronic selftimer gives you plenty of time to get in the picture yourself
  • Switch to Landscape Mode to capture distant vistas with crisp, sharp clarity
  • Quartz Date (QD) model available with convenient date imprinting

Condition notes
We tested all camera functions with film and batteries installed (the film was not processed) and everything is working well. We verified the camera's film plane focus accuracy on an autocollimator and also its auto-exposure accuracy. The camera is in very good cosmetic condition (see photos). The case is included but only in fair condition.
