All said and done, I like my mini Leica . . .
I like it because it gives me pleasure when I whip it out of my bag and take a picture. I don't keep it as a conversation piece. I don't care about party convo or what other people think about my little camera. I'm a camera lover and get a kick out of this camera, it's as simple as that. I have more serious cameras in addition to this mini that take better pictures. I like the size and weight, it's easy to keep in my bag for quick pictures when I'm running around town. I'm not one for cell phone cameras, so this is a good compromise. The pictures are grainy when blown up, but sometimes I like that effect. The colors are sometimes wonky, esp. the blues (too blue), but I also like that effect at times, too. This type of distortion in photos can be accidentally beautiful. It's not extremely well-made. I keep a small piece of duck tape over the memory card door because it kept popping open. Also, the little rubber cover that protects the socket for the USB cord keeps popping open. Minox could improve these things in future versions (are you listening Minox?). Is it overpriced? Hell, yes. It's a personal thing, this camera. You'll know it if you need it. People who are skeptical or wondering should probably pass on it.

(Oh, and I have the flash. It works. It gives off some pretty harsh light, but if you shade it just right with your hand you can get some decent indoor pictures. The flash is a huge attachment, tho, bigger than the camera itself, kind of awkward and funny.)

More Toy than Camera
If you want a camera that is going to give you amazing pictures with incredible detail, THIS CAMERA ISN"T FOR YOU.

This camera sells because of the nostalgic effect it has on people not because its a great camera. Minox could do a lot better, and I'm thinking about going to Wetzlar and talking to them next week....

Maybe the camera would work better with a Flash?, although I'm not sure it will, and I'm reluctant to buy anything more for this toy.

If you don't want to carry a hulking camera everywhere you go this is AN option.
The only luck I had was that I didn't have to pay the full 200 some euros for it, since this was the display model directly from Minox I only paid 66.50 Euros, (including shipping and 19% Tax)
still a little much for little more than a toy.

Fashion statement and OK camara!
This item is more of a fashion gadget than a professional Leica. The pictures aren't so bad, just keep in mind it is a 5 megapixel camera. But perfect for facebook pics! And its so small that you can take it everywhere!

just for fun
the size is small enough. The package is strong and safe for transportation. The quality of image is just acceptable. Just for fun only.
