Your film costs just the same whether your camera gives you a full roll of good pictures or a succession of failures. With this Snapper Camera you can be sure of getting eight out of eight first class, full-size snapshots which need no further enlargement...

I bought one of these camera brand new from Oxendale's sale catalogue, I think in the early 1960s. The quality was much less than that of the Ross Ensign 820 Special I bought secondhand a little later. I still have them, but I haven't used them for many years. The 820's shutter gave in, as Epsilon shutters were prone to do. I also have a Ross Watcher stalking telescope. This was (and is) an excellent piece of equipment, and much older than the cameras.
