My Camera Histoire: Bigger Is Better

Just a few months after I had purchased the camera, Minox announces a new version of it called the DCC Leica M3 Plus. This version was a major upgrade from the previous model. It had, built-in hard drive and accepted up to a 2gb SD card, rechargable battery, White Balance control, EV exporsure control, an full color LCD preview screen and even video capability. I just had to have it and sure enough, there it was in an Air France magazine in the duty free secton on my way back from Paris. I purchased it and now I am a happy camper again.


I carry it just about everywhere with me. In fact, I'm in the process of trying to make a book of pictures that I will sell on Blurb.com when finished. Unfortunately, what that really means is they'll probably come out with 3 more updated models by the time I finish it.
