It gives you the choice between a fast 35mm f3.5 wide angle and 50mm f5.6 \"normal\" lens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis camera can either be powered by four alkaline AAA batteries (not included) or a CRP2 lithium battery (available as an option). Alkaline batteries are more economical probably the best choice for most people but the lithium option offers very long life (perhaps worth it if you're on holiday and don't want to worry about changing batteries).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition notes\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe camera is was tested with a battery and film installed. All features are working correctly. We verified the film plane focus accuracy with an autocollimator. The camera is in good cosmetic condition with some normal wear from use (see photos). The included case is quite worn condition particularly in the back (see photos). \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExample photos \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHere are some pictures that other people took with this model of camera.
