Thanks for the suggestion Stefan.  As I said previously, it's the lens th=
at
will be the deciding factor.  If I can't put Kodachrome 25 transparencies=
 in
the same tray with those from Leicas without noticing a big difference, I
won't bother buying a P&S.

Regards,
Bud

Hey Bud!

Why don't consider a Nikon 35Ti? I have never tried the Minilux or the
Contax T2, but I have a Nikon 35Ti since 1993, and I am very satisfied
with it. Both with the optics and the exposure meter (it has matrix
metering which the other two mentioned P&S cameras don't have).

All the best,

/Stefan
