Chinon Genesis with camera strap!
The Chinon Genesis began production in 1988 and is part of the "bridge camera" range - models that offer more advanced features associated with SLR cameras (parallax-free framing and a well-specified zoom lens), but with "point & shoot" ease of use (autofocus, DX-code film-speed setting; motorized film transport).
The original Genesis introduced the concept of the "zoom-lens reflex," a camera with true SLR viewing but a non-removable zoom lens covering most typical situations. In Chinon's case, this was a 35-80mm (f/4.1–6.4) lens of 8 elements in 7 groups, with a manual zoom lever. The lens uses active infrared autofocus (helpful in dim light) and has a modest manual-focus "macro" range down to 0.5 m (20").
