[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have a C1, which fits in my pocket, unless I'm at the beach, (it's a great beach camera). It has been a workhorse, takes great pictures, and cheep. Down side is the auto focus is difficult (as usual), and the viewfinder is so small. On new years a couple years ago, there was a bar fight and it got soaked with lager, bounced on the floor and kicked about in the scuffle. No problems, a bit sticky on the zoom, but it cleaned up nicely.

It wasn't at all pocketable. If carrying it in a pocket is probably, I'd go with the smaller cameras. The Contax T3 is a great P&S. I don't know of anyone rich enough to own the CM at $1,000.

Can anyone offer an informed opinion on the relative merits of each, against, say, the Contax T3?
