I just developed my first roll put through an XA that was handed to me recently. Things look tack sharp, exposure was dead on, and contrast was excellent. Can't wait to print!

^ May the power be with you. I'm enthralled by the XA: but what tickles me most is that I get el cheapo 6x4 matte prints done and put them in small photo albums: something real, something tangible to last and pass around. I carry the XA with me everywhere on my travels sling-style (on a PacSafe lanyard) — it's the first preference "boss cocky" but the three cameras on my Samsung phone also get a workout...

Another nice XA story, went to a pool party the other day and had the XA with me for some nice water slide and other close shots of the kids having a ball....well the XA got soaked, didn't fire and the RF was all fogged up. I let it sit 24 hours, it is now fine, metering is spot on again! Long live the XA.
