Product Information

You’ll always be able to find batteries for it (probably in a drawer along with some old keys that you don’t even know what door they’re for), getting it loaded is child’s play, and shooting it is fun and satisfying.

Examples include slight impurities like worn leather or metal, signs of age on the bottom plate, and dull marks. Since then I've been exploring the Sure Shot line and not a single model I've tried has disappointed (although my personal favorites are the Owl and its variants, like the AF8). But if given to the viewer intimately in a small print, zine, or on a phone, the whole presents itself. In practice, despite its chunky appearance, the camera can slip in and out of a coat pocket very quickly and securely with minimal risk of slipping from your hands.

When introduced to low light settings, the flash will always fire, and the snapshot-disposable-unmediated aesthetic emerges.

The camera’s bonus features, the soft focus filter and multiple exposure mode, work as they should, though in both cases results will vary from user to user. Slightly larger and more legible than most point and shoot cameras, it zooms throughout the range of focal lengths in unison with the lens. If you’re the kind of person who wants a bulky norm-core point and shoot over a bulky norm-core SLR, the Zoom XL shouldn’t disappoint.

Some of my favourites are these colour images from Chongqing, China, and a monochrome photo essay I made in Qingdao, also in China. The Canon’s Sure Shot AF-7s (aka Sure shot Owl PF or Prima AF-9S) was launched at the turn of the century. The Sure Shot/Autoboy series are the only point and shoot cameras by Canon that featured a 38mm f/2.
