Hi!

Just wanted to show you two of my mini cams.



Minox 35 GL and Ricoh FF-1









Two very nice cams with excellent lenses!

And to show that they were able to produce small cams some decades ago: the Beltica.

How do you define "bad" here?
If you aim at the soft parts, that's narrow DoF.

I shot these pics with a 350D and a noname 35mm manual lens which I got together with a Zenit for almost nothing.

These are obviously very tiny as you place them on Lego bricks Laughing

I like each one, though of course the beltica has my heart...

Which do you like using the most?




(just to hijack a bit - my Bessa 66 vs Yashica T4:)



The Bessa is maybe the smallest 120 6x6 folder, and I post this to show that much worse camera shot quality is possible Wink

Hard to say. I got the Ricoh only two days ago, the first roll is still inside.

The Minox has a great lens and produces really good results, I like it a lot.

The Beltica is a true classic, but also full manual. No meter, no automatics and thus slower to use. That's why I would not like to use for every kind of shootings but if you have time, it's fantastic and the results are much better than I have expected from the Meritar lens. The Minox (and the Ricoh) can be used quickly and are very versatile.
