How is the Olympus XA not mentioned in the OP? Probably the cheapest f/2.8 available (aside from the Epic mju II). I'm working through my first roll now. Tiny and fun.

What about the Canon AF35ML (Super Sure Shot)? 40mm, f/1.9, $25 buy it now on ebay. And it looks like it's a little bit smaller than the original Sure Shot.

Pompous Rhombus posted:HK, not so much, although the stuff from mainland China that's made it over there probably wouldn't be outrageous. Lucky and Shanghai are the two Chinese brands of film I know, they're cheap and fun for playing around with, although now that I'm back in the US I normally pay the extra to shoot Acros.

That's an awesome idea. My XA RF window is fogged to hell, I just zone focus when it isn't really bright. I'll give it a whirl. Your link is bad FYI.

Olympus stylus epic mju II arrived last night, holy crap this thing is tiny. Even smaller (and much lighter) than an XA.

brad industry posted:The shutter buttons are electronically triggered and if they get wet they die eventually. I think the XA2s are worse about this - I've killed two by shooting in the rain.

Try the Canon Sure Shot A1. e: somehow they range in price from $10 to $200 on ebay. Not sure what's going on there... e2: What about a Minolta Weathermatic Dual 35 DL AF? spf3million fucked around with this message at 15:00 on Sep 17, 2012 |

Olympus XA2 would be my recommendation. Not technically a point and shoot since its zone focus but pretty close.

At first glance I thought this was how to take a picture of Darth Vader. Just another reason why the epic owns.
