The Revue X1 is a compact camera. It was manufactured in China.
The Revue X1 is designed for the so-called APS film system. This means that it can only be used with films that are suitable for this system. Since these are very hard to get anymore, the Revue X1, like other cameras for this system, is not worth much.
The snapshot camera sets the exposure itself. Sufficient light is provided by the switchable flash.
The Revue X1 is identical in construction to the Chinon AP700S.
