Olympus IS-100 | S/N: 1347112 Good Condition | 35mm ZLR Camera | The All-in-One Analog Masterpiece The Olympus IS-100 (known as the IS-10 in North America) is a masterfully engineered "ZLR" (Zoom Lens Reflex), a unique category of camera that combines the high-end performance of an SLR with the fixed-lens convenience of a point-and-shoot. Featuring a powerful Olympus 28-110mm f/4.5-5.6 high-resolution zoom lens, it is celebrated for its versatile "ED" (Extra-low Dispersion) glass that delivers professional-grade clarity from wide-angle landscapes to tight telephoto portraits. This unit (S/N: 1347112) represents the pinnacle of bridge-camera design, offering the mechanical soul of a film camera with the intelligent automation required for effortless, creative photography. With its ergonomic "L-series" grip and sophisticated dual-flash system, the IS-100 provides the optical brilliance and technical heritage that made the Olympus IS series a global icon. Key Features Versatile 28-110mm high-resolution zoom lens covering everything from wide vistas to portraits True Single-Lens Reflex (SLR) viewing—what you see through the finder is exactly what the film captures Advanced "Intelligent" dual-element flash system for natural indoor and low-light lighting High-performance Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass elements for superior sharpness and color Multiple creative exposure modes including Portrait, Landscape, and Night Scene Fast and accurate autofocus system with predictive capabilities for moving subjects Durable, futuristic industrial design with an exceptionally comfortable, secure grip Introductory Paragraph The Olympus IS-100 is the definitive choice for the enthusiast who values professional optical quality without the need to carry multiple heavy lenses. This specific unit is a standout because it offers the "best of both worlds"—the precision of an SLR's through-the-lens viewing and the simplicity of a fully integrated system. The Olympus optics are famous for their sharpness and lack of distortion, ensuring that your 35mm negatives retain a level of detail that rivals many interchangeable lens setups. Because it features a "Twin Flash" system, it serves as a robust tool for environmental portraits, providing balanced light that avoids the harsh shadows typical of smaller compacts. Whether you are documenting a family trip or exploring the art of street photography, this Olympus provides the optical brilliance and "grab-and-go" convenience that defined the peak of the bridge-camera era. Condition Report Good condition. The Olympus camera body (S/N: 1347112) shows normal signs of light use and minor cosmetic surface wear consistent with its age. The integrated 28-110mm lens is optically clear; free from fungus, haze, or significant scratches. The autofocus and motorized zoom systems have been tested and are fully responsive. The shutter fires accurately across all settings, and the flash system operates correctly. The battery compartment is clean and the film transport mechanism is smooth. Specialist Note "The IS-100 is often called the 'ultimate travel camera' for film lovers. What I love about this model is the lens; it’s an incredibly sharp piece of glass that handles color beautifully. It’s a rugged, honest piece of Japanese engineering that feels like a natural extension of your hand. The ZLR design was a stroke of genius from Olympus—it gives you the SLR experience without the bulk of a camera bag full of lenses. For anyone looking for a reliable, high-performance 'all-in-one' film camera, the IS-100 is an exceptional choice."
