What is your favorite all around PnS Cam?

Yashica T5. Great Zeiss lens and that waist level scope. :)


Ray, have you tried Contax T2? I got T2 and Minilux around the same time. Being similar in specs(aperture-priority, manual focusing option, p mode, superb lens...), T2 with its superior viewfinder & design proves to be a better camera.

Yes I did have a T2 and it is a beautiful camera. I wouldn't mind having one again. But it was really posh and I wanted something I can just toss into a backpack and not worry about it. The T4/T5 and the Olympus really fit the bill.
 
I have been using the T2 and Minlux for a while. Minilux seems to have sharper pictures, but can say I prefer one over the other.

I recently got the Fuji Mini, interesting cam, havn't finished 1st roll.

my dream cams are the Ricoh GR21 and Minolta TC1
 
I owned a GR21, fantastic wide pocketable camera. Lens protrudes a bit compared to other GR series cameras.

I miss that camera, snap mode was great with that wide lens.

I like my Contax T2 better but seem to use my mju:II (aka Stylus Epic) more. That's probably because its lighter, so sits more easily in a jacket pocket. I have an old and beat-up Canon Ixus 40 digicam that sits in my pocket at all times. It's used more frequently on whiteboards and business cards than anything else.

Indeed. I still like my Yashica T5 best for a carry-it-everywhere.
For backpacking trip this kind of P&S is simply perfect.
When I lost one I thought I'd just had to use my (then new) Hexar more,
but later I just had to buy another T5.
 
Ricoh GR1s - beautiful little cam with a wonderful lens. The only thing I'd think about swapping it for would be the GR21. I like my Olly XA too.
