Small camera. Normal sized film. Nowadays though the sensor size not the film size is far from full frame and the picture quality suffers accordingly. Small camera. real small film (sensor though really). The Minox film format was 8x11mm The Digilux 2 sensor format was 8.8 x 6.6mm. Remarkable though the quality one could get from it even in a not small inkjet. I think an M8 might do quite a bit better.
