- I own two 35mm cameras, a Stylus and a Maxxum with assorted lenses and filters.
- They're used for outdoor photography (mountains, etc.). The Stylus gets
- loaded with Ektar 100; the Maxxum get loaded with K64 or Velvia. The
- Stylus is used for snapshots. It's carried in my pocket in its gray velvet
- bag. Exposures are clear enough for enlargements to 8x10. 11x14s are too
- grainy and blurry. Serious shots are always done with slide film in the
- Minolta, usually with a circular polarizer.
