Canon's solar-assisted Sure Shot Del Sol — 35mm autofocus fixed-lens compact, program AE, 1995.

The Canon Sure Shot Del Sol is a fixed-lens 35mm autofocus compact from 1995, distinctive for its solar-assisted power system that helps keep the camera charged in daylight. Canon sold it in Europe as the Prima Solar and in Japan as the Autoboy Solar, so the same body appears under all three names.

As a fixed-lens 35mm compact it has no interchangeable mount, so those fields are blank. It uses a fixed focal-length lens, autofocus, a built-in automatic flash, program automatic exposure, and motorised film transport, with a solar cell supplementing its battery power. It remains battery-dependent for full function, so a charged internal cell is still required to fire and use the flash.

The Del Sol suits travel, everyday and beginner use for photographers drawn to its unusual solar feature and simple automatic operation. It handles like a straightforward prime-lens compact, trading zoom reach and manual control for ease of use.

On inspection, check the film-door light seals for perished foam, look through the fixed lens for haze or fungus, and confirm the LCD and the solar panel are undamaged and the display reads cleanly. Test the shutter, autofocus and flash for correct cycling, and examine the battery compartment and door for corrosion, noting that solar bodies still rely on a healthy internal cell.
