The '''Jazz 207''' is a "[[fixed focus|focus free]]" camera with built-in [[flash]] which uses [[35mm film]].  It would seem to date from 1996, according to it's internal markings. Its body is typically made of colored, transparent plastic - colors such as strawberry, grape, lime and blueberry. It uses one AA battery to power a built-in flash of no great strength. It has a "panorama" mode in which it exposes only the middle 13×36 mm stripe of the film frame. It has a 27mm "optical" lens using a single element, which shows slight blurring in the corners of the frame.
