The IZM300 cleaned this time was
It is a fully automatic camera released in 1988. It was introduced 34 years ago already, so it would be included in the vintage cameras.
As I recall, there were many fully automatic cameras of this design around this time, and I myself owned a fully automatic camera of another manufacturer.
It is not a single-lens reflex camera, but it is operated using both hands.
It has a strap on one side, so you are less likely to drop it down.
It is quite heavy, but I feel secure.
I was also surprised by its stylish design.
It was the winner of the European Compact Camera of the Year award.
If I had known about such a beautifully designed camera back then, I would have owned this IZM300 without a doubt.
It was a cutting-edge design at that time.
The 80’s are booming in Japan, but if you go out on the street with this IZM300, you will be able to take a picture of the world.
You might be able to keep up with the boom, or even create it. …….
