This
is a very basic compact camera. I got it for next to nothing, so I
tested it nevertheless. It was launched in the early 1980s. Haking,
based in Hong Kong, made plenty of simple cameras from the 1950s
onwards. There is not much information about this model. Its main
features are:
34mm

This camera is incredibly basic. You slide it open and push the
shutter, that's all. There are no features except flash suppress. The
only automatic decision the camera does is flash on. The camera is said
to have an auto-focus lens, but you don't see or hear anything moving.
Maybe it's fixed focus. No night photos with only one shutter speed.
Point and shoot as basic as possible.
