Re: [Rollei] shoot me down



Well, I have a Prego 90 and a Prego 70 - the lenses on both are amazing! 
The 90 is my favorite point and shoot, and I have many including Leica 
and Contax. Too bad it looks so awful ;)  The prego 70 is nice and 
small, and can take great shots, but it needs 400 or faster film - the 
lens is so slow. I uase it when I need a pants-pocket camera as it is 
just tiny (hence the slow lens).

I think Prego's are terribly underrated. They seem to take a lot of 
abuse too.
