Film compartment. Note the curved film plane, it helps against the vignetting of the simple plastic lens.

I came across an unused one in its original box:

The box.

What's in the box. Camera with strap, bubble plastic wrapping and French instructions.

The camera lacks the SC-911 inscription...

...but it's indicated on the side of the box and on the box' the front picture.

These are the ultimate basics of a camera, focus free, single shutter speed and fixed aperture. Point and shoot only. If you choose the right film, ISO 400 in general and ISO 200 on very sunny days, you can shoot outside photos that look o.k.. The rest will be "Lomo" style, but you can attach a flash for interior photos.
