SPECIAL NOTE: 636 AF AUTOFOCUS CAMERA:
Model 636 AF Autofocus Camera, from a service standpoint, is similar to the 636 OneStep/Close
Up only in outward appearance.
As an extension of the 636 Camera line, the 636 AF uses a slightly modified version of the Impulse
shutter and a repackaged version of the Joshua electronics and software. It uses wink autofocus
from two feet to infinity, a rapid recharge strobe with a range of 10 feet, and has a maximum
shutter aperture of f/12.
In addition to more than two dozen unique parts, the 636 AF camera uses a combination of parts
from the 636, the Impulse Shutter and Joshua electronics.
