| Nikon 35 LT -- a very compact 35mm with a fine lens, 35 - 70mm. Auto-exposure, built-in flash. Flash may be turned off, or set to slow synch. Timer and red-eye controls. If used selectively, produces great pictures. Easy to carry anywhere and is unobtrusive. For better lighting, I sometimes use the built-in flash to trigger larger flash heads. | |||
| Fuji Discovery 80 Basic point/shoot. Built in automatic flash, fixed focus, decent lens. A camera that delivers an excellent photo within limitations. Main flaw is motorized film advance, which fails with age. May have date back. Lens cover very helpful. Stuff it in a pocket or back, and go...No need to worry about theft... | |||
| Olympus XA -- very small, sturdy camera, and very collectible. It has aperture priority with full range of f-stops and manual focus. Detachable flash and a very fine 38mm lens. Great for discrete photos and travel. These are not made anymore but are very useful. Unlike today's small cameras, it has a metal body. Has +1.5 stop over-ride for back-lit scenes and self-timer. Similar models without the full manual control are also available. | |||
| Canon A35-F and Konica -- they look similar, but are quite different. Both have built-in flash (very basic) Auto-exposure, maximum film speed to 400, and 40mm lens. Neither has a true aperture setting, that being selected automatically. The Canon is a true rangefinder, though, with a very quiet, accurate shutter. It is also built well. I use it for unobtrusive street photography. Very nice lens that accepts a 46mm filter thread, unusual on a point/shoot. I also have a Canonet, which is a very similar but earlier version. That camera does not have a flash, but does have a hot-shoe. The Canonet allows you to set the aperture, or use an automatic setting. | |||

Olympus Trip, Olympus Pen -- the point/shoot of earlier days. The Olympus has a good lens, but the Trip model focuses by using the scale on a dial. Auto or manual, aperture priority. Built of metal and has a PC (Photo cord) outlet for flash, plus a hot shoe. Filter threads. A similar camera is the Iloca, but not as good. | ||
| Canonet -- this model is only one of many that Canon made. See their site Canon.com for a history. A true rangefinder with a decent lens, it has a hot shoe and can be set to auto-exposure or aperture priority. Another of the many small cameras that can deliver decent results. Lens is a f2.8, 40mm and has filter threads. The metal body is sturdy. Smooth film advance. | |||
