tomorrowstars - welcome. This is one of my favorite threads in addition to the GRD thread.

I bet that's a sharp little lens. Have you ran a roll though it?

I just finished a roll but the machine at my local Shoppers is on the fritz. I expect to get it back after the weekend. I picked it up for $3 at Value village so I hope it works.

Cameos are nice little cameras. The Zoom model is not so little . . .


Kodak Cameo Zoom by Mike McGarty, on Flickr

Lens: 25 - 50mm zoom with 5 focal lengths
Film speed range: 100-400 ISO
Aperture: f/8 @ 25mm, f/11 @ 50mm
Shutter speed: 1/100 sec.

The front lens element is actually concave.

They're odd little cameras, but I like the idea of everything being protected inside when it's floating around in my pocket.

25mm on the wide end sounds pretty nice.

Also the Cameo design puts the flash farther away from the lens for what may be less "red-eye". I have yet to prove my theory. I need to finish film in half a dozen other cameras

Cameo with 25-50 looks like boy, imitating his dad - Tokina 25-50/4 zoom Such a wonderful focal length.

Cameo looks like a streamlined VR35.

Yashica Auto Focus S

this P&S has a scale focus indicator on the FRONT of the camera,
you can check your focus AFTER you shot the picture
or
your subject can remind you: "hey, you forget to FOCUS!!!"

speaking of good design ;D

A nice little Fuji Zoom Date 1000



I was a bit disappointed with it, I bought it having the Zoom Date F2.8 in mind but for a pound... what the heck...

I like the Fuji P/S a lot and especially those with EBC coating.
The Silvi F2.8 is nice being 24mm, but it feels VERY cheap IMHO.

I love this. It looks like an old transistor radio.

Mine is older and a lot more beaten up.
Haven't put a roll through it yet.

It's actually plain metallic silver, the tint is from PP.

olympus am-100

something between a fixed focus and zone focusing camera.

no button pressed fix focus 1.5m to infinite
top button at the front for infinite
lower button for close-up (0.5 -1.5)

lens is a 35/3.5 multicoated triplet
shutter speeds from 1/45 - 1/1400
self-timer

i haven't run a film through it yet, but what i have seen on flickr, the lens seems to be very capable.

unfortunately the focus buttons are a hassle to press. apart from that i really like it so far. i even prefer zone focusing, cause the af of my other p&s is quite inaccurate anyway (i don't have any high-end models, though)
