About

Ricoh introduced the AF-40 in 1985[1] at the lower-price end of its point-and-shoot lineup. This model features a (non-zoom) 38mm f/2.8 autofocusing lens, and motorized film advance. Power comes from a pair of generic AA cells, rather than the odd battery sizes popular in later point & shoots.
