The viewfinder of a typical film compact camera is on the opposite side of the shutter release button, but this camera has the viewfinder on the side of the shutter release button.
It is a square type with R on the four corners.

Again, we have seen the viewfinder.
I noticed that even though they are made by the same manufacturer, the designs are completely different.
I think Olympus has many cameras with more distinctive designs.
And compact cameras, which are often made of plastic or resin, offer a variety of designs in various parts.
Since compact cameras are easy to use, isn’t it a good idea to choose a film camera with an emphasis on design?
I hope you all enjoy your film cameras as much as I do!
