I like to shoot Kodachrome 200 in mine, makes for a great pocketable rig. The one problem is that it is purely guess-focusing, so I end up shooting with a large DOF setting (f8) - it can limit the kinds of shots I get, but all in all it is a fine camera. Another one I like, similar to the Minox, is the Olympus XA, a nice little pocket camera with a rangefinder for focusing. Not as sharp as the Minox, but still excellent. The XA and Minox 35 are real bargains - no excuse for not trying them out :-) - - marc On Friday, November 29, 2002, at 11:19 PM, Henry Ting wrote: > > A friend of mine show me a Minox GTE and some enlarged > prints.
