Night and Day, Penelope is the One

In the Odyssey, Penelope worked night and day on her tapestry, awaiting Ulysses. In its own way, her namesake camera also combines day and night: light in the ultra-bright viewfinder, dark in the instant-loading magazine. Just as Penelope's wait was worth it, Ulysses came back, so you have not waited in vain, since this revolutionary 35 millimeter camera is available for purchase starting October 2008. Penelope is the epitome of all the features camera operators and rental companies are looking for.
