The Prego Zoom, introduced by Rollei in 1993, is a compact autofocus camera for 35mm film, with a zoom lens of moderate range, made by Schneider. There is a range of later 35 mm compact cameras, with various zoom ranges, such as the Prego 70 with a 35-70 mm zoom like this camera, the Prego 90 (28 - 90 mm), and the Prego 125 (38-125 mm), and Rollei also sold some digital cameras with the Prego name. Prego introduced some advanced features for a camera of that size, such as multiple exposures, intervalometer, and compensation for back-lit subjects. It incorporated Fuzzy Logic to determine optimal shooting conditions (easymode) and portrait zoom, in which the camera tried to fit a face to most of the frame.

Some models have an auto-date function with the optional back.
