Nice series, I really like the tonality, I'd love to know where I can buy some of this Cinerex.

I don't have a Big Mini but I have the A4 which is the predecessor and very similar, I like it so much I bought a second one to have as a spare, the 3.5/35 lens is upto SLR standards, surely one of the best fitted to a compact.
