Beyond the Minox

A lot of you wander in looking for my review of the Minox 35gt, a wonderful little camera I've carried around for years. I use it often, and sometimes it's the only camera I carry when traveling. It's pretty hard to beat its combination of light weight and superb image quality.

These days I use a digital camera as a way of recording ideas or images that I need to share with colleagues. For example, I often take digital stills when scouting photo shoots. Being able to hand the photographer a visual guide outlining what I need has saved me a lot of time and money in the past. Until its recent demise my main digital camera was a Minolta X20, which filled the role of digital notetaker pretty well.

Now, I'm playing around with a camera that has none of the Minolta's shortcomings -- which were many -- and which might replace the Minox as my travel/work/everyday camera once and for all. More on this later.
