| Bobcat's Full Review: Leica Minilux 35mm Film Camera |
You can keep it handy even with a backpack on. Put it in a small Eagle Creek-type pouch and run your chest strap through the loop. (I sewed a mini-pouch inside the E.C. pouch to hold a Swiss Army Knife, so that's handy too, and you can keep a lighter, a few bucks, keys, etc. in the zip pocket.)
I'm a fairly particular photographer, so when I decided to get a point-n-shoot, I wanted the best optical and mechanical quality and relied on the Leica reputation (which hasn't let me down). I also like the feel and look of the camera. Though you can't tell much from looking at JPEGs, I have several web pages which were shot with this camera on backpacking trips. Go to www.BobcatHill.com and click on "Ye Olde Web Site"; the John Muir Trail and Marble Mountains links were all shot with the Minilux.
