A classic early-1990s Canon point-and-shoot featuring a sharp glass Canon 38mm/70mm f/3.5-6.0 dual focal length zoom lens, reliable autofocus, automatic film advance and rewind, and Canon's excellent exposure system. The Sure Shot Telemax is known for producing consistently sharp photos while remaining incredibly easy to use.
This camera has been fully tested and is in excellent working condition. The only issue is the frame counter remains stuck on "S", but this does not affect the operation of the camera. The shutter, autofocus, zoom, flash, film transport, and rewind all function properly.
Includes the original Canon box, instruction manual, and international warranty booklet.

How to Keep Track of Exposures
Since the frame counter does not advance, there are a few easy ways to keep track of your roll:
-
Count each photo as you take it. Most rolls contain 24 or 36 exposures, making this surprisingly easy in practice.
-
Keep a simple note in your phone and tap the number up after each shot.
-
Place a small removable sticker or piece of painter's tape on the back of the camera and mark each exposure with a pen or pencil.
-
If you're shooting intentionally, many photographers naturally remember approximately where they are on a roll without relying on the counter.

Keeping Cameras Out of the Landfill
At CobbleStore Vintage, we believe quality cameras deserve a second life. This Telemax still performs exactly as it should where it matters most, producing photographs with its excellent Canon glass lens. Rather than discarding a perfectly usable camera because of a non-essential frame counter, we're giving it another opportunity to keep creating memories for years to come.
Final Sale Disclaimer
This camera has been thoroughly tested and is functioning as described above. The frame counter remains stuck on "S" and has been reflected in the price. Due to the age of vintage electronics, all camera sales are final. Please review all photos and description carefully before purchasing.
