Vivitar: Point n Shoot

[bill339]

Vivitar actually made two versions of this camera. A black camera with white lettering and a red shutter button was introduced in 1986, and this more stylish purple version that was sold through Avon. This version was produced in 1987 and was sold exclusively through the giant catalog makeup company. The camera is completely purple with minty green lettering and shutter button. It came complete with a matching purple wrist strap and zip up case. The camera has a fixed focus lens and fixed exposure, so it is as the name implies a point and shoot camera. You cannot adjust anything on the camera except to add a flash bar when needed. The camera produces 17mm x 13mm images from the 110 film. Both cameras were made in China and sold for about $40.00 when new.

Black camera, this one?

[bill339]

Yes that is the camera and the F I guess stands for flipflash. I'm sorry it took so long to answer this Notification but I never knew this existed. I think I'll look at the others now.

Not sure why the new forum doesn't send e-mails in some cases. It should...

I know to look now and if that is all that goes wrong we are in great shape.
