Lluis,

As I have told others, I am not bold enough to pull out a camera among 
strangers, on their turf.  But phones have become so common that people 
don't give a second thought to me when I am looking at my screen, 
occasionally pushing a key.  This one has a 3.2MP sensor, f/2.6 fixed focus 
lens, and goes up to ISO 400.  With the short focal length, everything from 
about 3 ft to infinity is usually in focus.

I have started carrying my IIIf on a short strap on my chest.  Maybe I will 
find a place to use it for street photography.
