Fujifilm's 35mm date-back zoom compact — 38-90mm Fujinon, autofocus, sold as Silvi 90 in Japan
The Zoom Date 90S is a 35mm autofocus zoom compact from Fujifilm, sold in Japan as the Silvi 90 and also catalogued as the Zoom 90S or Zoom Date 90 Super. It followed the plain Zoom Date 90 in Fujifilm's date-back compact line, in a silver-finished plastic body typical of the early-2000s point-and-shoot market.
It carries a Fujinon 38-90mm zoom — a slow-aperture consumer design — with autofocus down to 0.9m, a programmed shutter spanning 1/2 to 1/360 second, and DX-coded film handling across a wide ISO 50-3200 range. A built-in flash, self-timer, large LCD control panel, motorised film advance and rewind, and date/time imprinting complete a fully automatic package.
As a light, cheap zoom compact it suits everyday and holiday shooting on colour negative film, which tolerates the small maximum apertures well. The long end of the zoom is best reserved for bright light, and like most of its class it offers little photographer override beyond flash modes and the self-timer.
These are battery-dependent cameras: nothing fires without power, so confirm the camera wakes, zooms through its range and rewinds properly. Check flash charging, the LCD panel for missing segments, the film door and its seals, and date imprint function if wanted. Sellers list it under Zoom Date 90S, Zoom 90S and Silvi 90 interchangeably — note the existing Zoom Date 90 is a different, earlier model.
