    Summary
    Excellent little camera for my use. I am a wide-angle person, so most shots are 28mm. Put in a Superia 400 film, and you are guaranteed with great results. Shot a wedding with it, and its picture quality actually rivals my OM-4 with the 28mm Zuiko. Super-sharp ED lens considering it a point-and-shoot. Excellent resolution and very good contrast. Smooth tonal response with the 200-400 speed negative films.

    I love the all-weather construction and spot metering, too. It is definitely a pro-SLR grade camera to fit in my pocket.

    It's just a great little camera.

    Strengths
    28mm f/4.6 ED lens
    28-100 range is ideal for people photography
    Spot metering - definitely useful in the sunny tropics (long SBR situations)
    Weatherproof - shot it in tropical thunderstorms

    Weaknesses
    100mm F/11.9 ED lens
    Weak flash output power
    Plastic construction
    Minimum focusing distance of 2ft is a bit too long compared to the typical SLR with 28mm
