The Olympus AZ 300, also known as the Olympus AZ-300 Super Zoom, Infinity Zoom 300, or IZM300, is a feature-rich 35mm film camera introduced in the late 1980s. It's notable for being part of the push towards what would be known as "bridge cameras," combining ease of use with advanced features not typically found in point-and-shoot cameras of the time. 

It's prominent feature is the all-inclusive 38-105mm f/4.5-6 zoom lens, standing out for its wide range and clarity. The camera employs an active infrared autofocus system, ensuring sharp, precise images. It offers programmed automatic exposure for optimal photo quality in various lighting situations. It possesses a real-image viewfinder with a built-in flash with accommodating modes (e.g., automatic, red-eye reduction), integrated for diverse lighting needs.
