The Rollei AFM35 costs more than $800 if I remember correctly.

Olympus Mju II (non-zoom version) is famous for it's quality and costs less than $200.

Lucky Chinatown is here.

The shop is on the 2nd or 3rd floor right in front of the elevator.

Looking at the specs i think the camera has no zoom but its supposed to have the best lens for any P&S camera.

There're other models (Mju series) with zoom and some within the budget. The non-zoom Mju II is recommended because of it's fast F2.8 fixed but high quality lens.

mju II wide 80 ^^

it has zoom, big aperture of 2.8 [think so] and wide angle of 28mm ^^

satisfied a lot as a pns.......and 4sec shutter allowing nights shots^^

second hand is around $150 +/- i guess.

mju II zoom 80 i think difference is the widest angle is 35mm and not 28mm......so depend on u.....think second is slightly lower than mju II wide 80 only
