Lo-Fi with Minolta Panorama Zoom 28

Another cheap point-and-shoot in my closet. Japan, the 90s, of course.

Possibly the only distinctive feature from the other point-and-shoots in this class is the presence of panorama mode. This switch will cut the top and the bottom of the image on the film and in the viewfinder as well. But it's not a real panoramic camera like let's say Horizon.

This camera makes flat, not sharp, high-grain pictures, but, to be honest, I like them. This camera is good for creative and experimental photography (as any other working camera).

I haven't tried color, and probably I should not. I didn't like color pictures from this Minolta on the internet. All the pictures below were made with 400 ISO film (Ilford Pan 400, Ilford Delta 400).

If you live or visit Switzerland and want to try this camera, just contact me. I am not sure if I want to sell it, but I can give it away for several days to let you shoot a roll of film.

That's it for today. See you next time. I am going to review a lot of other strange and interesting devices. Cheers!
