Olympus Superzoom 105 Point & Shoot 35mm Film Camera (38‑105 mm, Auto‑AF, Built‑in Flash)
The Olympus Superzoom 105 is a well‑balanced 35 mm compact camera released circa 1996, combining simplicity with useful zoom flexibility. Its 38‑105 mm zoom lens covers both wide‑angle and short telephoto, giving you more framing options than a fixed lens compact. Fully automatic autofocus and exposure mean you just load film, point & shoot. The built‑in flash includes modes such as red‑eye reduction and self‑timer support for group/family shots. With automatic film loading, advance and rewind, this camera is a great “set it and forget it” option for everyday film photography or travel. Reliable, simple, and compact — a strong choice for beginners or anyone wanting a capable zoom compact on film.
