I bought this camera from Optics because the ones that i had seen in the shop near me were twice the price. It is not my sole digital camera but it is easily the one that draws attention when I use it. It is a wonderful piece of machining from Minox that enables you to compose digital photos and have fun as well. It is a little bit fiddly to use, if oyu are looking for an easy to use point and click digital camera buy a Canon Ixus, but if you want to adjust and have some tehnical fun then this is the camera for you. I bought the optional extra Flash unit and I am glad I did though it is a trifle bulky in shape not size. With the flash unit attached it is not possible to use a tripod which is a design oversight. Overall, it is a very pleasurable camera, one that you will use as a secondary treat and enjoy for many years.
