During my vacation in the German parts of the Alps I had some time to play around with the Canon EOS 500N that I bought last year. I really like the large optical viewfinder of this camera - it's a lot better than the viewfinders on most digital cameras. The Canon is a bit bulky compared to typical digital cameras but it's lightweight, since it's a plastic construction. Indeed, it's light enough to carry around all day when you are hiking in the mountains. Additionally, the Canon is easy and fun to use.

In my opinion the colors of the Fujicolor 200 film that I used are very classy-looking, a lot like the colors on old postcards.
