The Samsung Slim Zoom 125S (also called the Maxima Zoom 125S) is a high quality, feature-rich zoom point-and-shoot from the mid 1990s. This camera can used as a simple point-and-shoot in its auto mode but also offers a plethora of advanced creative controls for people who want to go deeper (including a very nice multiple exposure mode). This was an expensive camera when new, the December 1996 Popular Photography listed as $699 USD (that'd be $1,319.46USD today).
The Slim Zoom 125S features a 38-125mm zoom lens (f3.8-9.9) and a shutter speed range from 1/3-1/400 plus a bulb mode. 
This camera requires two CR123 batteries (available as an option).

 

Condition Notes
This camera (serial number 9205875) was tested with batteries and a roll of film (the film was not developed). All modes are working correctly. The cameras true film-plane focus accuracy was verified on an auto-collimator. The camera is in good cosmetic condition except that a rubberized backing on the back wore off (a common issue with of cameras of this era; see photos).

Manual
We weren't able to locate a manual but according to the December 1996 issue of Popular Photography, the Slim Zoom 145S is mostly identical except for its lens and added vibration reduction feature so its manual should be helpful: https://www.cameramanuals.org/samsung/samsung_slim_zoom_145.pdf
