Olympus Go

The Olympus Go is a compact 35mm point-and-shoot camera introduced by Olympus in 1996. Designed as an accessible, everyday film camera, it features a fully automatic operation with a fixed-focus or simple autofocus lens, basic exposure control, and a built-in flash. Its lightweight plastic body and straightforward interface catered to casual photographers seeking an easy-to-use device for capturing snapshots without technical complexity. Part of Olympus's mid-90s lineup of consumer compacts, the Go represents the era's shift towards simple, affordable alternatives to more complex SLRs and sophisticated compacts.
