Description

The Minolta Prod-20s is a rare, limited-edition 35 mm compact film camera released by Minolta in 1990 with a distinctive retro design inspired by early rangefinder cameras. Despite its throwback style, the camera functions as a fully automatic point-and-shoot with:

• A fixed 35 mm f/4.5 lens for wide-angle everyday shooting

• Autofocus and program exposure for simple operation

• Built-in automatic flash and self-timer

• Automatic film advance and rewind

The Prod-20s reads DX film speeds from ISO 100 to 1000, sets shutter and aperture automatically, and is powered by a single CR-P2 battery that can last for around ~1000 shots with typical flash use. Because of its limited production and unique styling, its often considered a collectible retro camera among film enthusiasts.
