       The technical stuff:
       Type: Compact 
      Lens: Konica 
      Shutter: Automatic

      What can you say about a point and shoot
      automatic camera? You point it and shoot and if you've remembered to load
      a film you will get pictures. However, there are pictures and there are
      pictures. I did close this roll early but what I got back was not that
      impressive. Having said I did push it to extremes using the full zoom
      range at both ends, and shooting into the light. At wide angle setting its not bad but it tends to blur around
      the edges and the converging verticals are chronic. The picture at the
      bottom is approximately 80% cropped from the centre of the original and
      still had to be straightened in Photoshop. The
      butterfly on the left is the other extreme end of the lens which is
      incredibly difficult to hold steady, this is the best of six attempts,
      maybe I should have used a tripod. In the centre "sweet spot"
      the lens is very sharp as one would expect from a company with Konica's
      reputation. If I get a chance I will try taking it out again under
      slightly less arduous conditions as I'm sure it can perform extremely
      well.
