AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Samsung compact film camera, visible in the photo, a 35mm DX type model with autofocus ("AUTO FOCUS 35mm 1:4.5" inscribed on the front). The body features a glossy black finish, with a smooth and understated front, typical of consumer cameras from the late 1980s to 1990s. The Samsung brand is clearly displayed in red letters on the front, as well as on the included hard case.

The lens is centered on the front, surrounded by a slightly recessed circular area. To the right (front view), there is an integrated rectangular flash, positioned at the top of the body, with a translucent window. Just above the lens, a viewfinder window and a light metering cell are visible. The inscription "DX" appears in the lower right corner of the front.

The camera body is equipped with a black strap attached to the left side (front view), practical for transport. On the bottom part, control elements or hatches, typical of compact cameras of this generation, are visible. The camera comes with its black hard case, adorned with a metal plate bearing the "SAMSUNG" logo, with a flap closure. The case shows visible signs of wear, particularly around the edge of the flap and some scuff marks on the surface.

The camera body surface shows some signs of use, including discreet marks on the corners and around the lens. The overall appearance is typical of 35mm compact cameras from the late 20th century, with a functional and clean design, suitable for everyday use.

This type of camera was commonly used for amateur photography, thanks to its ease of use and compact size. The set offered includes only what is visible in the photo: the Samsung DX body and its original hard case.

Condition

Used camera, sold as-is for parts or restoration. Non-functional, as indicated by the keywords. Shows signs of use, wear on the case, scratches and marks on the body. No guarantee of functionality.

Did you know? The "DX" designation on 35mm cameras refers to the DX coding system, introduced in the 1980s, which allowed the camera to automatically read the ISO sensitivity of the film thanks to a code present on the cartridge. This system simplified automatic shooting for consumer cameras.
