You can easily override the feature by manually zooming. It also includes handy dedicated 'flash cancel' and 'force flash' buttons.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis camera requires a CRP2 lithium battery (available as an option). The original Minolta case is included (it's a pretty nice case with a snap clasp and suede-like material).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCondition notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe camera's functions were tested with batteries and a roll of film (the film was not developed). All modes are working correctly. In addition, we verified the camera's film plane focus accuracy on an autocollimator and its exposure accuracy using a shutter tester and calibrated light source.
