I don't think it has to be small. <<There is no way you can hope to match the sharpness and durability of a full-frame 35mm SLR camera.>>

I know what you mean about them being "electronis." I hate that. Everything is that way now; nothing is good old mechanical.

But do they still make plain 35mm like days of yore? My camera was a Yashica I got used for 50.00 25 years ago and finally wore out and no one will fix it. But I got it to do what I wanted. 35 years or so of life out of that bugger. That's ecology.

I too doubt the Pronea would last more than 3 to 5.
But I am so sick of this age we've entered of buying disposable, unrepairable crap. It's so bad I have ethical problems with it.

(Not to mention economic.)
