I have had a couple of films through this camera now with generally impressive results. There have been a couple of hiccups. The first when the viewfinder stopped zooming with the lens and stuck on 35mm leading to the second, a light leak causing a diagonal stripe across one corner. The colour film then showed a dark patch in the same corner. Fortunately it isn't too intrusive and the lens quality allows cropping to avoid it.
Speaking of lens quality, the lens here is seriously good. The wall posters and the sleeping cat are straight out of the camera, only post being colour inversion and resizing. When I apply my usual light sharpening to overcome the mosaicking the results are more than acceptable. The autofocus and bokeh are OK too.
I have lost it to my grandson who has swapped it for the Vivitar Big View P&S he had from me.
