Sir,
You are my hero!

Cool collection. Any favorites?

Nikon Lite Touch, Canon MC, and Vivitar Tec 155. Olympus XA3. All of the Pentax Espio/IQZoom models, especially the 24EW and 928. Samsung ECX-2. Canon ML. Leica Mini Zoom. Ricoh FF90. Those are the ones that get the most use, anyway. But really, none of them stink.

I use my Ricoh FF90 quite a bit also. It has the telephoto, wide, and cpl attachments. That 35mm 2.8 lens is great.

I'm surprised. I never saw any attachment for these kind of cameras. And what does CPL stand for?

Here you go

The Ricoh mounts just snap in place.

Attachments...

The one on the left is a cpl (Polarizer) 49mm that you screw on to the Ricoh mount.
I never use the tele or close up to speak of. Orange 49mm works great w/ B&W

I have the aux wide and tele lens set for the Ricoh, but have never used them.

CPL = Circular PoLarizer

It also means Certificate of Pending Litigation, in other contexts

Very nice collection. You've got some great point and shoots there.

One of these days I hope to stumble across a Yashica T4 or an Olympus XA at a thrift store.

I'm still hoping to find a Leica M7 + Noctilux at a thrift store.

Let us know when that happens.

Even more unloved than 35mm point and shooters - 110 cameras. I bought this Minolta 440 for $2 because it was blue. If I ever find a 110 film cart, I'll run it though. If not, whatever.

I got a subsection: coloured bodies...
I got this one. Though in black, never knew about a blue version. Got a pocket tough in fluorescent orange.

I have a few P&S cameras, all loaded with Portra 400. One lives in my car, the other in the drawer in the kitchen and the other I carry back and forth with me to work every day.

Cool. For reasons unknown, I still buy them - usually for $3 or $4. I have a Canon AF35M II in my glove box now. I also couldn't resist this Mamiya EF2 for $4. I bought it just before Christmas. Manual wind, rewind, zone focus, 3 element lens, but cool looking.
