The Haking Vision IV is a camera from the 1990s. It was produced by the Hong Kong company. It's a simple plastic body camera. It was sold for a low price and was aimed at casual users. Its automatic makes it a good choice for parties or weddings.
This camera model has a lens that is not interchangeable. The largest opening of the aperture with a focal length of 34 mm is f/4.5. You don't have to focus manually with the 35mm camera. The Haking Vision IV comes with an auto focus.
The camera has an exposure meter to measure the exposure. The sensitivity is read out by the camera technology via the DX coding. It has automatic exposure. The photographer cannot choose the aperture and exposure time.
The built-in flash provides enough light. This flash can also be used as fill flash. There is a switch for this on the front. When fill-in flash is on, the flash fires with every shot. This is useful, for example, when photographing someone in front of a bright background that is in the shade.
The camera requires two AA batteries (eBay / Amazon*) to provide power for all functions.
