Halina Telewide

The Halina Telewide is a basic, fixed-focus 110 cartridge camera produced by Halina, a UK manufacturer known for affordable, entry-level photographic equipment. Like many 110 cameras of its era, likely manufactured during the 1970s or early 1980s, it was designed for simplicity and ease of use, targeting the snapshot market. Typically featuring a plastic body, a simple fixed-focus or zone-focus wide-angle or telephoto lens (indicated by the "Telewide" name, though specifics are unknown), and a basic built-in flash powered by a common battery type (likely AA or 9V), it offered a straightforward point-and-shoot experience. It was positioned as an inexpensive option for casual photography, prioritizing accessibility over advanced features or precision, reflecting the mass-market appeal of 110 format compact cameras at the time.
