I guess the pictures shown on eBay give a way larger impression.  I've found 
shots of an Ace featuring the 3,5cm and it's miniscule.  Probably the diameter 
of the 8cm lens is only 2,5 or 3cm.

I didn't find too much data on the Ace when looking for it.  (I did find some 
photos taken with one, and the results were quite a bit better than shots from 
an Olympus 35something on the same site).  Does anybody know what the 
dimensions of the camera are ?  Does the Ace-E need batteries or is it a 
battery-less meter ?  Does anybody on this list have any experience at all with 
these cameras ?

Refering to other threads again, if the Ace is as small as it looks, this could 
be the lightweight travel killer camera :-)


Peter.
