[net.rec.photo] Nikon L35AF

copp@petrus.UUCP (06/26/85)

I would like to hear reports on the Nikon L35AF, their low-cost
fully automated camera (auto focus, auto load, auto wind, auto
rewind, auto flash).  It sells for $130 in the N.J. discount stores,
and $115 at 47th Street Photo in NYC.  Also, opinions on the
non-Nikon add-on wide and tele lenses ($35 in NJ, $25 in NYC).
Thanks!

Every add-on wide and tele lens I have ever seen, except for those
very few which were designed by a camera manufacturer to work with
their own cameras, is a piece of junk.  Counterexamples are welcome.
