1. Rare and super compact Ricoh R10 a.k.a Ricoh 'ELLE' 35mm compact camera.
*info taken from wikipedia:
"The Ricoh ELLE is a compact 35mm autofocus point & shoot camera produced in 1999. Elle is the name of a female fashion magazine who colaborated with Ricoh for the release of this model and assited in the design of the case, the camera design borrows heavily from the Ricoh R1. It would be re-released as the Ricoh R10 in 2002, making it one of the last 35mm camera models released by Ricoh."
Great camera that I've lightly used, the LCD segments for the date numbers and pic messages go in and out sometimes which is common for these cameras. All functions aside from that, however are working 100%. including macro mode and self timer. This is the same exact camera as the "ELLE' version which sells for $499 and up online if you can find one. The only difference between this and the ELLE version is the name. This model is in EXCELLENT CONDITION. with a few nicks of paint wear. just see pics. A unique and fun feature of this camera is the ability to imprint messages in the picture such as: " HAPPY " and " I LOVE YOU" and it would show in the same way as a date imprint would. Lens is great on this camera and Ultrathin. Like a GR1 series minus the manual overrides which I honestly can do without. $125 shipped and paypaled USA only. I have an Olympus Stylus EPIC, a Yashica T4 and GR1s and honestly this is my favorite one of them all. I just can't justify keeping 2 of these so one has to go.
2. Another rare and obscure compact point and shoot camera capable of shooting true macro pictures
*info taken from camerapedia:
The MacromaX FR-350 is a 35mm compact camera by Goko released in 1998.
Even thought it looks similar to many other ordinary compact cameras, it is designed with macro capabilities as a primary function. There are three color coated distance modes Ultra: 0.1 - 0.3m, Super: 0.3~1m and Normal: 1m - infinity. The modes can be selected on the front of the camera surrounding the lens. The viewfinder parallax can be changed depending on the mode selected. Additional adapters can be used on the camera to provide proper distances during macro photography. The lens is a 31 mm f/6.7 made of 3 element in 3 groups. There are three electronic shutter speeds 1/300 sec., 1/90 sec. and 1 sec. The top of the camera along with the shutter button has the on/off button, flash mode, timer, rewind and a macro button that selects between U and S. A LCDscreen is also on the top, displays settings. It uses a single 3V CR2 battery.
This one is new old stock! Brand new in BOX!. Just taken out of box and installed battery to make sure all functions were working. Comes with complete kit. User manual carrying case and Macro Brackets. Such an interesting camera... Again I'd keep it if I didn't already have so many cameras. Here's your chance to own a super cool one of kind camera. Good luck finding it anywhere else at the moment in this condition and price.
$90 Paypaled and shipped. USA only.
