The Nikon Zoom 200 is a 35mm camera. It was introduced in 1995 by the Japanese manufacturer. A functionally identical model was also sold as Nikon One Touch Zoom in some markets.
The zoom lens of the photo camera is fixed and consists of 6 glass elements in 6 groups. The focal length ranges from 35 mm to 70 mm. The largest aperture is f/4.7. The camera has an autofocus. The closest focusing distance is 80 cm. It does not have a macro mode.
The Nikon Zoom 200 has a light meter for taking pictures. It is designed for films in a range from ISO 100 to ISO 1000. The film speed is read out via the DX code. The aperture and shutter speed are set automatically and cannot be changed.
In low light conditions, the built-in flash can be used. At ISO 100 the range is 4.3 meters. The 35mm camera has a thread for a tripod and an electronic self-timer. The self-timer has a release time of about 10 seconds.
The camera weighs 240 grams and measures 12.5 x 7.2 x 4.5 cm. The camera requires a CR 123A battery (eBay / Amazon*). One battery should be sufficient for about 18 rolls of film. The batteries are still easy to get.
Nikon Zoom 200 QD
The Quartz Date model offers the possibility of imprinting the date and time at the time of taking the photo. Of course a One Touch Zoom QD was also offered.
Films for the Nikon Zoom 200
The Nikon Zoom 200 is equipped with 35mm films. 35mm films are still produced by different producers. A recommendation for colour photos is the Kodak Portra 400* and for B/W photos the Ilford HP5*. Both films are ideal for souvenir shots and are flexible in use.
The colour film is a negative film and is processed in the C-41 development process. This is offered by almost every photo lab. For developing you can also hand in your colour films at many drugstores.
