Ricoh's Myport zoom compact — the Super Zoom, autofocus, program AE, built-in flash, 35mm, 1994.
The Ricoh Myport Super Zoom is a fixed-lens 35mm compact point-and-shoot from the mid-1990s, sold under Ricoh's Myport branding, one of the names Ricoh used across its compact camera range in different markets. It is an automatic zoom film camera aimed at everyday use.
This 35mm compact has a built-in zoom lens, autofocus, and programmed automatic exposure that sets shutter and aperture. It includes a built-in automatic flash, DX coding to read film speed, and motorised film loading, advance and rewind powered by a battery. Operation is fully automatic, in line with other Ricoh compacts of the period.
The Myport Super Zoom suits casual users who want a travel and family camera with a zoom for framing distant subjects and loose portraits. Its strengths are simple operation and framing flexibility; the limits are the small maximum aperture at telephoto and dependence on the flash in low light, with no manual override of exposure or focus.
On the used market, check the LCD panel for dead or bleeding segments, cycle the zoom to confirm the motor extends and retracts cleanly, and test autofocus and the flash. Look for haze or fungus in the lens, inspect the film-door light seals, and check the battery bay and door for corrosion. Confirm the film advance and rewind motor run before relying on the camera.
