Olympus's wide-angle XA capsule compact — 28mm lens, close-focus macro, zone focus, auto exposure, 1985.

The Olympus XA4 Macro was the last of the XA line of pocket 35mm compacts styled by Yoshihisa Maitani, arriving in the mid 1980s. It distinguished itself from the earlier zone-focus XA2 by fitting a wider lens and adding close-focus capability, giving the capsule-format range a model aimed at wide-angle and near-subject work while keeping the familiar sliding clamshell body.

The XA4 is a fixed-lens 35mm compact with a wider lens than the other XA models, reported as a 28mm focal length, and it offers macro or close focusing down to a short distance marked on the body. Focusing is by a zone system rather than a coupled rangefinder, exposure is automatic, and the camera uses button-cell batteries for its metering and electronics. A wrist strap doubled as a measuring guide for the close-focus distance.

In use the XA4 Macro suits a photographer who wants a wide field of view and the ability to shoot close subjects from a pocketable body, making it useful for travel, street and documentary work where a 28mm lens is welcome. The zone-focus system asks the user to estimate distance rather than confirm it optically, so it rewards familiarity, and the macro setting extends its range beyond a typical fixed-lens compact.

When buying, check the zone-focus ring moves and clicks into its settings, and confirm the meter and shutter fire correctly on fresh cells since the electronics depend on battery power. Inspect the lens for haze and fungus, test the clamshell action, and examine the film-door seals and battery compartment for corrosion or perished foam, all common issues on compacts of this age.
