In celebration of the small, Olympus XA
Small is beautiful as far as I’m concerned when it comes to cameras. Here are some frames from my Olympus XA which is the smallest true rangefinder that I own. I wish that I could design my own camera free of any concerns about money or infinging on copyright or purhaps the laws of physics. It would end up being pretty small and not necesarily have a lot of features beyond easy controls, something like a digital Olympus XA maybe?
Here is the XA nestled next to the Pentax K10D with grip, which wouldn’t be confused for a small camera, unless you were a gaint.
