Halina's 1980s 35mm AF compact — 34mm f/3.8 triplet, DX coding, manual pop-up flash, runs on two AAs.

The Halina AF810 was a 1980s 35mm autofocus point-and-shoot from Haking of Hong Kong, sold in the UK under its Halina budget brand in black or a distinctive red finish. The same chassis was rebadged for Dixons as the Miranda A-X, one of several Haking designs sold under retailer names.

It has a 34mm f/3.8 coated glass triplet lens with fully automatic focusing, a fully programmed electronic shutter and automatic exposure, with film speed set by DX coding. Film wind and rewind are motorised, and the flash, guide number 35 in feet at ISO 100, is raised manually by a button rather than firing automatically. Power comes from two AA alkaline batteries.

This is a lo-fi budget compact rather than a refined one: reviews describe variable build quality and a plasticky feel, but the manual pop-up flash means it never surprises the user with unwanted flash, and the 34mm lens is capable of respectable results in good light. It suits experimenters and fans of 1980s point-and-shoot character on a small budget.

The camera needs its AA batteries to fire, so test the motor wind, which is the known weak point; period reviews report film-advance jamming on worn examples. Check the battery-door catch, a fragile part on this chassis, confirm the flash pops up and charges within a few seconds, and inspect the sliding lens cover for a snug fit.
