And lest we forget, probably the best pocket 35 for it's size and cost,
the original Olympus XA, still my favorite pocket camera. Drawbacks?-only
one. As a rangefinder, it's not easliy focused in low light (ie,night shots).
I know, there's ways around that. But if you want to pull it out for a quick
shot of friends, it's tough. On the other hand, it takes awesome pics :)
enjoy,
