I use the Olympus mju II zoom 170 best compact point and shoot camera series EVER! Review video on my channel. I paid just £10 used 2nd hand off ebay for it many years ago when digital photography was getting more popular, these little 35mm compact cameras were very cheap, not now though, for very good reason, they have almost reached cult status, due to their timeless design, quality build and superb results for absolute minimal effort! I also have the original mju I purchased new the 1990s.

I got myself a mju ii at a flea market last week for the amazing price of only 1€. Its an amazing little camera yet it is very hard for me to understand what justifies a 200€-300€ price point. For a plastic point and shoot camera they are severely overpriced...

share your dev and scan process

Nikon L35AF is a better compact camera under $300. Konica big mini, Olympus XA series (XA4 my fave), Minolta Freedom Escort (aka Leica Mini), and a few more are also a better value.

WHat's the difference between the portrait 400 & 800?

@joelhypponen

Primarily how light sensitive the negative is (ISO 400 / ISO 800). With that, Portra 800 is also a bit more grainy.

its one of the sharper point and shoots but honestly the MJU ii is wildly overpriced because of Tik Tok. Its a great starter camera but the artificial spike in cost won't last when people realize the long term costs of film/developing.

@@BEM_01 The same thing happened with vintage game consoles like SNES, NES, and other ones. There was a peak somewhere around 2018-2020 where as now its cooled off and people have lost interest. Obviously still some ludicrous prices- but as a whole the price has gone down. Theres a bunch of parallels between the two. Not being manufactured anymore, can easily break, scarce in quantity, better kept copies selling for more... the problem with cameras is theres just so many to choose from, once people see these provide only less than incremental changes to the shots, it'll die. you can disagree all you want, but google trends already shows a drastic loss of interest over the past 4 years.
