c1990s. 35mm film, compact, point and shoot camera.

This is a 35mm plastic camera of the cheapest type. The same body was used for other cameras and even one version with a built in flash. This body has evidence of a battery compartment that is covered over, the flash area is covered, and the flash ready LED is missing but the hole is present. This is an upgrade for the Spirit P, a full-time panoramic camera with a different body but just as cheap. The camera has a slide selector in the front to switch it from Panoramic to Normal. The switch changes the viewfinder only and you need to remove the mask from the inside of the camera manually to switch to Normal or put it in to panoramic mode. Once you start a roll you are committed to that format. The camera also has a built in lens cover that also locks the shutter when closed. It is a fully manual operated (no batteries required) and Focus free. The camera was made in China the 1990’s and Kalimar was so proud of this model they failed to put their name on it. They do suggest you use ISO 200 film for best results. The shutter speed is around 1/90th of a second and an aperture of around f16. Other features are a rewind release button, rewind fold up crank lever, thumbwheel film advance, frame counter, film observation window in the back cover, and a handy carry strap.
