Thank you for the explanation. I have never really used the ASA setting (I guess we're both old enough to still call it "ASA") for exposure compensation because on other cameras I was able to compensate with the shutter or aperture manually. I'll run a couple of rolls and see how it works.(posted 8177 days ago)The Minox 35 series are in my humble opinion under-rated. Evey time I consider another camera for street or discrete photography, I keep coming back to the Minox with its 35mm focal length. Unlike today's point and shoot cameras, the lens is fast. (The exception is the Olympus Stylus Epic, whch has a good lens.)
The Minox 35 is so small most people don't seem to realize it is a camera. It is so quiet that I sometimes find myself checking the shutter indicator to see if I have really taken the photo.
I assume you are familiar with Martin Tai's Minox forum in Yahoo-Groups. I just started developing my own 8x11, which makes it much more affordable.
