Canon's dual-lens Sure Shot Multi Tele — 35mm autofocus compact, program AE, sold as Prima Tele, 1988.
The Canon Sure Shot Multi Tele is a fixed-lens 35mm autofocus compact from 1988, part of Canon's long-running Sure Shot point-and-shoot family. The same camera was sold in Europe as the Canon Prima Tele and in Japan under the Autoboy name, so listings and manuals appear under all three labels for what is one identical body.
As a fixed-lens 35mm compact it takes no interchangeable lenses, so mount and compatible mounts are left blank. It offers a dual focal-length arrangement giving a normal and a longer tele setting selected by the user rather than a continuous zoom, autofocus, a built-in automatic flash, program automatic exposure that sets shutter and aperture together, and motorised film loading, wind and rewind. It runs from a battery rather than a mechanical wind, so it will not operate with a flat cell.
The Multi Tele suits everyday snapshots, travel and casual street use where a pocketable body and a switchable tele view matter more than manual control. Handling is simple and largely automatic, with the trade-off that exposure and focus decisions are made by the camera and the two-step lens does not replace a true zoom.
When buying used, check the foam light seals around the film door for perishing, look through the lens for haze or fungus on the fixed optic, and confirm the small status LCD shows cleanly without bleed or missing segments. Fire the shutter and flash to confirm the autofocus, film motor and flash all cycle, listen for a healthy focus and wind motor, and inspect the battery compartment for corrosion or leaked-cell residue around the door and contacts.
