Here are some more favorite XA shots. I apologize for the scans, I only have
a flatbed scanner, and these are scans of 4x6 prints. If anyone has
suggestions for negative scanning I would love to hear about them. I would
love to get better digital images, as these do not capture the contrast &
sharpness or the originals.
Anyway here are the XA shots. Both of are the South Island of New Zealand:

The XA has been a great pocket travel camera over the years. I have now
moved to the IS-3 (originally IS-1) when I do not want to carry the OM kit.
The IS still gets lots of car duty for grab shots like this one in Austria:

I love the OM, but I started on a Trip 35 rangefinder in '73 or so, then the
XA for many years, so I guess I have rangefinder in my blood.
Have fun!
