Fujifilm's mid-1990s APS zoom compact — Fujinon 30-60mm, CR2 power, sold as Endeavor 200ix in the US
The Fotonex 200ix Zoom was a mid-1990s zoom compact for APS film, produced around 1996 in the first wave of Fujifilm's Fotonex line and sold in North America as the Endeavor 200ix. It sat below the 250ix and 300ix Zoom models, offering a shorter zoom in a similar automated package.
It carries a Fujinon 30-60mm 2x zoom with autofocus, automatic exposure and a built-in flash, powered by a 3V CR2 lithium cell. As an APS camera it loads by drop-in cartridge and supports the Print Quality Improvement (PQI) function, recording shooting parameters onto the film's magnetic layer for the lab printer, alongside the standard C, H and P print formats.
In use it was an unfussy family camera with a modest but useful zoom range and fully automatic operation. Today it is a collector's piece from the short-lived APS era; examples survive in museum collections, including the National Trust's, which says more about its ubiquity than any rarity.
With APS film discontinued since 2011 only expired stock remains, so most buyers want display-grade examples. If testing, fit a fresh CR2 and confirm the camera wakes, the zoom actuates, the flash charges and the cartridge door latches; motorised transport faults are the usual failure point.
