Canon Sure Shot 35mm point and shoot film camera with 38 mm f/2.8 Lens

Product Information

In general, I found the Zoom XL’s focus to be fast and reliable insofar as I could easily tell if the camera thought it had focused or not, and its success rate was pretty high at just over 90% so about 3 or 4 shots on a roll of 36 were out of focus (and this includes focus missed due to possible camera shake or subject movement post-focus, but also includes some where the camera definitely messed up big time). This is not as high as an SLR but is nevertheless a very respectable performance for a point and shoot. I think the success rate is due to the spot AF being calculate from quite a narrow central region, which makes focus and recomposing very straightforward.

Basically, Canon expected the typical user to never cancel flash or force it on and the camera is probably best used that way.While the overall experience is pretty similar from model to model, there are some slight differences you should be aware of if you’re looking to buy a Cannon Sure Shot. If you’re looking for a cheap point and shoot film camera, it would be hard to go wrong with one of the many Canon Sure Shot models. If this was to happen, and it did happen, the cameras would have to be easy to operate. The AF-7 certainly fits this bill. In that pantheon of great underwater film-burners, the Canon Sure Shot A1 ranks pretty well. It’s a well-made, high-performing, extremely simple-to-use camera that’s comparable to other underwater point-and-shoots made by Nikon and Pentax and others. But it’s also sort of hard to rank. The focus on the Canon Sure Shot Supreme is located in the middle of the frame, which means when focusing the camera, part of your subject has to be overlapping the square in the middle of your viewfinder. It also shows you where the edge of your frame will be so that you can line up your shots accurately.

Reversed Galilean viewfinder with projected frames. Within the image area are the AF frame, in-focus lamp and near-distance warning lamp, combination flash-ready and camera-shake warning mark, and parallax correction marks. 0.45x magnification. A nice little feature on this camera is the little grey twisting ‘foot’ built into the bottom plate. This allows the camera to be angled upward slightly when placed on a flat surface, for self-portraits. I don’t do selfies, but it does mean you can take floor shots without having the entire bottom of the picture taken up by the floor. Perhaps the Supreme’s biggest tragedy, though, is how close it comes to being a fantastic street shooter. The ergonomic handgrip and shutter release position make the camera really easy to hold and shoot one-handed and, better still, the film doesn’t advance until you release the button. The advance is not terribly quiet, so this increases the camera’s stealth capability considerably. Or at least it would if you could be sure the flash wasn’t going to go off. I toyed with the idea of fashioning a piece of plastic to keep the flash override permanently pressed, but I don’t really use it enough to justify the effort.

Frame lines aside, I loved using this little compact. On the street, I did not have to worry about anything except composition. The camera did all the work. Not really something I could use for candid photography, the motor is quite loud, but a great camera to take on holiday or run about town. It’s not going to be the most impressive film camera you’ll ever own as far as image quality or advanced features goes, but that wouldn’t be why you bought one. Colour photography of the submerged world made its debut in 1923, when botanist W.H. Longley worked with photographer Charles Martin who generally took pictures on non-moving subjects. He had a picture featured in the July 1927 issue of National Geographic of a hogfish.

The Canon Sureshot line of film cameras was in production for 26 years and featured over 50 different models. They’re one of the most common types of point and shoot film camera that you’re likely to come across. In fact, I think the only thing that detracted from the fun of shooting the Canon Sure Shot EX is the fact that the viewfinder is a little small. The camera itself is quite big and very comfortable so hold, so I found it a little disappointing that they couldn’t have found the space for a larger viewfinder that’s easier to find with the eye. Photos First day of school Flash A spontaneous snap Good light did wonders for this image At 70mm sharpness is still pretty good, but clearly not as sharp as it was at 50mm, and the SLR lens is noticeably sharper than the Xoom XL It’s hard to see at this small size but the SLR lens begins to get the upper hand again at 70mm There’s a feature on Zoom XL called Intelligent Framing Zoom mode. The manual states “once you set the shooting magnification, the camera memorises it and lets you take pictures with the same subject size from a different shooting distance or angle”. I haven’t used it. However, the button that controls this also allows to cycle between single and continuous shooting at 1.2 frames per second.
