The credit card sized Fujifilm Fotonex 1000ix MRC Tiara is said to be the smallest APS camera built. Also known as Epion Tiara… in Japan, and Endeavor Tiara… in the US. The MRC stands for ‘Mid Roll Change’ – a common feature in APS cameras where you can swap cartridges mid roll if needs be. It features a titanium body, with a protective sliding cover that also activates the camera when opened. A nice design, and has a reputation of producing excellent images.
APS system cameras were jointly developed by the major manufacturers to be easier to use than conventional 35mm. They use an automatic load film cartridge. Introduced in 1996, the timing wasn’t right. Digital cameras started to become more popular in early 2000’s, and by 2004, manufacture of APS cameras ended. Film cartridges continued to be produced until 2011. However, out of date film is still available, and it can be processed by some specialist companies.
