Minolta autoexposure compact camera from 1991, part of the "panorama" boom of the early 90s. Called Minolta P's in Japan and Freedom Vista in America. Uses a fixed focus 24 mm lens and a mask to make narrow (12,2 mm high) exposures on frames of 35 mm film, for the photofinisher to blow up to long prints.
