The camera has the classic rectangular bar form factor you find on many low end 110 cameras. The front has from left to right; Opening for view finder, small window labeled "sensor," the recessed lens opening, Continental Logo, and built in flash. On top you have a red shutter release button and a textured finger grip area, centered is a sliding switch with a sun and sun behind clouds pictograms. The slider has 400 (when slid towards sun) and 80/125 (when slid towards cloudy). When slid into the full sun side, it slides a neutral density filter between the lens and the shutter. The top also has a flash switch which is marked "on" and "off." -- for the built-in flash. On the bottom there is a thumb winder typical of most 110 cameras and a tripod socket. The right side has a battery door for the two AA batteries which power the flash and exposure system. The left side has a wrist strap lug. The rear has the eye side of the view finder and the film loading door. The shutter mechanism is cocked by the perforation sensor, so the camera will not accept non-perf reloads. The camera will accept 80/100 or 400 ASA. A sliding switch decreases the exposure for 400 using a neutral density filter. The exposure system will only tell you if there is enough light or not. A red LED in the viewfinder glows if there is not enough light. The shutter is a strange configuration consisting of a flapping door between the lens and the film. The lens is a single element meniscus so don't expect great results. This camera is not a very sophisticated imaging machine, however, it is adaptable to a pretty wide variety of photographic situations. A step up from a simple point and shoot…but not a very big step.
