The camera is well appointed with features (including its very nice lens with two aspherical elements) and has a very elegant industrial design (the retracting lens cover and swivel-up flash are very retro-futurist). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThis camera is a subtle update to the also-great Freedom Explorer\/Riva Zoom 70W, the primary difference being a lens redesign that gives slightly more zooming range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBattery info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe camera requires a CR123A lithium battery (optional).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\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).
