I've just got my pics back from my Fuji DL Supermini Zoom. Astounding! Sharp with fantastic rich color. I used to have the none zoom version years ago which I stupidly sold. When a beat up zoom version came up on the Bay I snapped it up for £17. The zoom sounds like it's about to die a horrible death, but still works. My first film was processed by Costco and was all washed out. I suspected the camera was hosed or Costco had old developer. It has taken me about a year to try again. This time Jessops developed it and the pics are amazing. Night and day compared the the one's developed by Costco. Same film type(Fuji) both times and both films well within expiry date. So I now know the answer to the Costco quandry!!! Thing is, no matter how good the film or the camera is, if the place processing messes it up then the results will ALWAYS be poor.
Even beat up, this camera astounds. I've love to snaffle a mint one...

Posted this in the Leica M show-off. I guess it belongs here too.
My latest aquisition. Also my only film camera. Got this baby cheap 2 days ago and now running my first roll through it. The seller was the first owner, who bought it new in 2002 so I have all the original boxes and user manuals etc.. belt holster too 🙂

This one intrigues me, the Ricoh FF-8WR:

If it has anywhere near the IQ of the FF-90/FF-70 in a 28mm focal length, that would be cool.
