      Comments about Minox Digital Classic Camera Leica M3:

      [...] The camera is great, the image resolution is excellent given the very small size. The only issues I have are that the camera is VERY sensitive to motion, and the view-finder does not allow for good composition. I bought the 4 megapixel version which has no digital display back. The 5 megapixel version does, so I imagine the composition issue is less troublesome. About motion sensitivity in the 5mp, I can't say.Despite that, I LOVE the camera because I am an "old school" photographer and like having my digital camera look like a film camera!

            A KIND OF LITTLE JEWELL!

            By Steagall-Conde

            from LONDRINA (PR), BRAZIL

            Comments about Minox Digital Classic Camera Leica M3:

            Like the brochure of MINOX Industries GmbH tells: A DIGITAL NOTEBOOK, indeed! Simple to use, Eye-catching (superb megamastereye-catchings!), Piece of LARGE & HUGE Conversationamong strangers (thousand of questions will fall hard overyou about it) and for a price that the Design deserves it. Well, I BOUGHT it by the design: With 4.0 Mp AND the design,both makes me very-very happy and satisfied. It is not a toy, like someone disgusted guy once shouts: Itis most a kind of low-tech hiper-portable hardware. PS: B&H is the most wonderful thing in E-Business !(Sorry about my rude English)

            Expertise: Serious (not nerd) Photo Enthusiast/Hobbyist

            Problems Encountered: Only one weird unacceptable thing: The LCD duo-digi, withvisual fails, make confusions on settings, maybe Minox willchange this 3rd. part piece, please Wetzlar buddies!My M3 do not beeps. But I do not care about it, for me is ablessing, I cherish the silence, instead I am a Latin One..The VC mode for WebCam features is messy, a confusion amonginstallation, even with the CD on the package, so, I amtrying into downloading the ArcSoft PhotoImpression stuffs,maybe works (FYI, maybe I never uses it as a WebCam).Because the original one is too expansive, I had made my ownCASE with soft leather and looks Fine, Classy and Nobble. This is not a problem but: My wife LOVES it also, so, I amthinking about some Heritage & Heirloom stuffs over thislittle Jewell in da hauss, maybe in a couple months...

            Previous Equivalent Item Owned: Canon AE-1
