Olympus Stylus Epic Zoom 170 QD 35mm Film Camera

I received this camera as a birthday gift three years ago and love it! (I have had several 35mm cameras in the past: a Hanimex with several lenses, a Minolta Zoom, a Canon Zoom, each progressively smaller but none as conveniently small as this one.) I wanted a 35 mm point-and-shoot to avoid (a) spending time focusing with a zoom (and losing the moment); and (b) carrying extra weight in my purse. With this camera, I can often put it in any purse, backpack or hand luggage, with case, or a small evening bag (without case) and it is always ready to use. It has travelled with me to Jamaica, Hawaii, Egypt, France, Vietnam, Peru and Italy and never disappoints! I discovered the panorama feature by accident and use it occasionally. I plan to give two of these as gifts this Christmas.
