I have to agree Jim.
   I love my XA! I always take it when I am hiking, usually loaded with 400
ASA Ilford HP5. It is capable of producing good 10 by 8 prints and larger. I
also use an Olympus MJU for convenience in school, logging pupil work and
displays...but far prefer the control of the XA. I also find it ideal for
candid shots, as well as for my shots of derelict buildings, scrapyards etc.
My only real gripe is that it is not possible to use filters with the lens.
I still rate this camera above my Olympus MJU and Olympus RC.  Highly
recommended!
               Regards, John Duggan, Wales UK.
