I took the minilux along on a trip to the Mosquito Coast of Honduras last summer. I planned to use my Leica-M's for black and white and my minilux for record-type slides. The Leica-M's worked perfectly, but the humidity got to the minilux and it completely quit working! I sent it back to Leica still under warranty (it was only two months old!), but they claimed it had water damage and refused to honor the warranty. It would have cost as much to repair as I paid for it! Now I have a very expensive paperweight. This year I am taking an Olympus Stylus which is waterproof as my extra camera! I hope you have better luck if you decide to get one - just don't take it somewhere with high humidity!
