Minolta Riva 75W, once my everyday camera
Every Day, Everywhere
*It's been 8 months' time since my purchase. Having taken over a dozen rolls of film, the updated Riva 75W proves itself an excellent & reliable performer(as my old Riva 70W). The print results generally look well exposed and saturated with nice colours. The pictures taken at night time & low light condition are better than most other p&s of the class.
-Strengths-
28mm wide angle, good metering, excellent for night scene, aspherical elements, macro shot ability, large & clear LCD, fast to swtich on/off, easy to control, attractive look/price
-Weakness-
noticeable distortion & dark corners at wide end, auto-feature-reset.
