Finally I found the red one...

[valdas]

I was ON and OFF... I used to have XA2 and XA3 in the past, bought it really cheap on the flea market, sold to friends and acquintances because never was too convinced I needed it... But now I found an expensive one (45 EUR), however this one is red and in excellent condition.... Should I keep it???
Sorry for picture quality (iphone)...

Definitely. Where else can you get a full frame compact that's red 😀

That's awesome... keep it! Too cheap not to.

Hopefully it may match your nail polish!!! If it doesn't I'll take it off your hands!

 

[Harlee]

The camera that is, not the nail polish!

Only problem might be to buy to corresponding ferrari...

It's beautiful.
not really stealth. More fire fighter style 🙂

Now look for a bright yellow XA2! I love the red one.

 

[dave lackey]

Strangely, I like that! Reminds me of a Ferrari Limited Edition...add a red Leica dot..🙂 Just keep it out of the sun as red fades to pink too easily.

The yellow one would be interesting too.. just add a smiley face to the clamshell cover and...I'll take it!

 

[dave lackey]

Gotta tell ya though...our son and his family took us on an all-day boat ride on at Lake Hartwell and took the XA2! Wonderful thing to have in your pocket for these things. Unfortunately, the black one can get misplaced when you're back at the cabin.

Wish I had a brightly colored one for that trip!😀

And wasn't there a laptop to match it?

Stealthy! ;-)

Too bad they didn't make the Fuji G690 in that shade of red -- that'd be the ultimate discreet street shooter.

 

[valdas]

It can take pictures as well... Well, I should not do this while driving... First roll from Ferrari of lomography...

As far as I can tell, there's no yellow version, there are blue and grey (off-white-ish, really).

I feel a 'Hello Kitty Edition' coming on, Dave! 😛😛😀

In Japan many camera models were sold in various colors seldom seen here.

When I worked in camera repair at Olympus USA in 1986
we had all color XA2 body parts in stock in the parts room.
Looking back it might have been fun to put together a multi-color XA2.
Alas Mr. Okabe, my trainer would not have approved... 😉

[dave lackey]

Yeah, these look so cool!

Gosh, looks positively American. 🙂
