1) Don't ever shoot Acros 100 in again on dreary, flatly lit days. Oh, how flat the pics are.
2) In poor lighting, do not use the Stylus with ISO film of less than 400. Without flash, it is real easy to impart shooter-shakes on slow shutter speeds. (I did manage to bag one OK shot in this roll in poor light.)
3) It is very, very difficult to fool the meter in backlit situations.
4) this is a fun, fun, fun little camera.

Here are a few shots made on Acros 100, souped in D76 1:1, 10.5 minutes at 68F:

My one successful low-light, flash-free shot:

About point #3, try turning around and meter and focus on an object that is an equal distance away and not back-lit.

And #4 I agree with completely. Here is a set with the one that I kept, most shots taken at a local cemetery:

I have a small light leak on mine evident in some of the pictures, I guess I kept the wrong one? j/k :)
