    What about a truly pocket-sized SLR?

    I saw one of these overpriced in a local camera shop. You can grab them on e-Bay with the full range of lenses available.
    Drawback is that 110 film is getting rare and it's expensive to get developed.

    A bit of a novelty/fun camera or 'talking point' - but, wow, what a feat of precision engineering! I love the grain of this film and the examples that folk have posted up to Flickr.
