The Canon Prima Twin (or New Sureshot in America or Autoboy WT28�� in Japan) is a 1990 bifocal compact autofocus camera. A slider on the front retracts the lens barrier and the lens comes out in its 28 mm mode. A press of a button makes the lens extend to its 48 mm "tele" mode. A date back is standard, and as the Japanese model name World Traveller 28 indicates, it can set the date of 24 cities around the world, including daylight savings time. It also has an alarm, to help the traveller wake up in time for his next flight.
