Finally third one what I bough today, I know this camera quiet well, so no surprise. Finish is black. I got first one from Andy (F16sunshine ) as a present easy handle camera to my wife. It was Canon QL17 I was shocked when I saw it's result.

Poor mans Leica ! Few years ago I saw some pics taken with such a cam. I was so impressed that I must bought one. Really a nice piece of equipment.

It might seem nice on the first view but I managed to destroy quite a few while using it on cycling tours. If handled with care it's a great camera but not suited for rough handling. |

Congrats! When I was searching I only saw one black version and it was a dog.
Great to handle, great features, great images from it. Makes me want to try some Canon interchangeable RFs.

Well done. You may find that you use this a lot and don't want the other cameras you mentioned.
Then again, CBA may be an issue.

That is a camera with a great lens! Somewhat larger than the Canon. Only negative points of mine are the rather heavy pressure needed to get the shutter going loud. |

Yes, U lucky pig! The black ones (precious seldom seen on ebay)

Just got this little dog in the mail today:
I'll clean it up and stuff a couple of hearing aid batts in it tomorrow and see
if it works. |

Paul, judging by the photos, I'd say it's better! Just kidding. I've
never seen scans this clean from anybody!
Bad news about the Memo 35EE, corroded battery left in compartment and
contact the battery rests on is nothing but blue-green powder. Light seals
are a gummy mess and need to be replaced, too. Already got a complete
refund for the whopping $17.49 I paid, so might try to repair this. I got a
bunch of hearing aid batts for this and the Oly 35-SP that will be arriving. |
