There is a long way between design and User Interface...







But I do luv the small Rollei!

There is something to be said for simplicity.

I suppose the Canon Snappy Q falls into the "ugly camera" niche:

And my wife's only camera, the (not-so) fabulous Canon Snappy V:

any camera with a single element lens, a curved film plane and a sunglasses wearing pop-tart is welcome in my collection

Since this thread has turned toward the bizarre, I found one of these guys at an antique store behind some nicer camera stuff. Got it for $2. I really oughta to go to Knotts and "spy" on folks with it.

The LCD screen on these really adds a touch of class to this particular model.

Greyscale, that Canon Snappy Q resembles also their advanced camera with a quality zoom lens...how it were called? Looks like Q is simplified version of it.

Ricoh RW-1 certainly is specialist camera. 35mm is too narrow. Or too cliche. Please, pack me 34mm. Here you are, sir. Thank you. Thank you.

It certainly takes some styling cues from the Zoom XL. And then melts them. They both came out about the same time, Sept 89 for the XL and Oct 89 for the Q.

This is a Minox miniature replica of the Leica M3. It uses Minox 8X11mm film cassettes.
It really works, though I never developed the film and have it as a collector's item.
There is also a digital 5Mp version still on the market.

Here is a link:

That's a nice little camera, Dave.

Here's a recently acquired Canon Sure Shot ACE with viewfinder on top much like a Yashica T4 only much bigger and brighter.

Good catch on the focal length!

34mm lens just may be the threshold between normal wide and super wide or it's just the Ricoh company being it's innovative self ???

Pretty sweet camera. Really bizarre artwork though

Enjoyed this thread so much I signed up to post.

welcome tomorrowstars... nice yashica u have...

i enjoy this thread too. seems to me, that in the p&s and scale focusing section much more innovative, outstanding and often funny designs can be found, than in the more expensive and therefore conservative slr and rf area.
