Canon Sure Shot Owl Date 35mm Camera

Product Description:

The Canon Sure Shot Owl is a lightweight, fully automatic point-and-shoot camera. It offers a 35mm f/4.5 optical glass lens equipped with three-step autofocus technology to give you sharp images from as close as 2.6 feet. The Canon Sure Shot Owl also provides an oversized viewfinder that's three times wider than a normal viewfinder, allowing for easier-to-see images and easier focusing--especially for people who wear glasses. The simple-to-use mode dial lets users quickly switch to one of four built-in flash modes, including red-eye reduction and a self-timer mode. The Canon Sure Shot Owl offers a choice of four shutter speeds and also features built-in autoexposure, auto film load, and auto speed setting with midroll rewind possible. This model also offers a five-mode date imprinting feature so you can always keep track of when a picture was taken.

The Canon Sure Shot Owl measures only 4.9 by 2.9 by 1.8 inches and weighs 9 ounces with batteries, so it's compact and light enough to slip into a pocket or purse.

Canon offers a one-year warranty on parts and labor for this camera.

THE Point & Shoot Camera2000-08-13
How many times have you had a kodak moment while your Carl Zeiss'ed Contax is stowed away in the dehumidified lexan box up on the top shelf of your closet? Get a handy point & shoot? But which one? The answer is the Canon Sure Shot Owl (or Prima AF-8 as its known in my neck of the woods). Biggest reason going for it is the SLR sized viewfinder. No squinting down lil' itty-bitty eyeholes.Then there's the AF on a fixed lens. No zoom. A definite plus to save indecision and lens twiddling. Also it comes with 35mm fixed. The desert island lens for most photogs. Lastly quality optics from not the makers of baby bottles at a price which you don't mind if you left the camera at the beach. I love mine.
Okay, but...2000-07-10
It is an okay camera, but I think the zoom action would make it better.
Pretty good but a tad bit expensive!2000-06-09
I find it pretty strange that no-one has bought or reviewed this camera. Well as the sole purchaser of the camera, I thought that it was pretty decent buy, though maybe it might be too expensive. This camera has all the basics, excluding a zoom function.

It takes standard film,

has auto-focus, auto advance and rewind,

A self-timer

Date printing

Red-eye reduction

The larger and easier to use viewfinder

and a neat little dial which gives the option of manually choosing to turn the flash on or letting that process be automatic.

Overall, I'm pretty happy with this buy, though I have to admit, if it had a zoom function, I would have been extremely pleased, but as I'm no photo expert, this camera works for me!

" For a list of all the ways technology has failed to improve the quality of life, please press three." - Alice Kahn This quote is certainly applicable to consumer electronics. From the very first commercially produced radios to the latest in high-definition television technology, the manner in which the components used to deliver our news, music, movies and entertainment are interconnected seems to have escaped logic. For both the newcomer and the old hand alike, connecting equipment in the most efficient and effective manner can be a painful chore.
