Wow, just a few months ago I found one of those at a thrift store for $3 (yes THREE dollars!), tested it and sold it for $200 on the bay. Still wondering if I should have kept it. SO TINY easily fits in a pants pocket. And control over flash and exposure comp is premium.

The Samsung AF Slim fixes all the issues you have w your Big Mini. Super responsive, same size, same way the lens pops out but it has a lens cover, superb lens. Do not confuse it with the later Slim R model which is dumbed down with a worse lens and worse shutter.

Hey King, you should have look on the Chinon 3001. I think it is an excellent point and shoot which is overlooked. It's very responsive, has a fast AF and f2.8. Only flaw in my opinion is that it is made out of plastic. Thanks for the nice video as always✌️

In which it also does the same of the Big Mini that the lens comes out. And yes it takes one CR123A. Have you ever heard of the Nikon Action Touch in which that it is a Poor man's version of the Nikonos as it will photograph underwater to 10 feet, and also it will manually focus underwater, I only use it when it rains, and snow, and uses AA batteries. Again Good Video, and not to mention Cute Dog.

Hey King, cheers from Rome Italy from a new subscriber! I consider myself as an advanced amateur photographer (if u have some time to waste check my instagram) but I shoot exclusively in digital. Recently I found a beautyful Minolta 7000 maxxum at my uncle's house and, because of u, I decided to start shooting with black and white film, so already ordered all the stuff to develop by myself the negatives. I will shoot a couple of rolls (hp5+ I think is a good all round film right?) with the "stock" lens I found attached (35-70 mm f 4.0) but, as I'm a canon user, I can't use my EF and RF lenses, so which lens you suggest at a reasonable price for the Minolta? Considering I will shoot portraits and street photography with this camera. Thanks in advance Cheers Andrea
