Travel: Madrid

Written by Nasir Hamid on September 17th, 2011

These shots are from a recent business trip to Madrid, made with my Olympus Mju-II (Stylus Epic in the US) point and shoot film camera. There’s no zoom lens on it, just a fixed 35/2.8 lens. After hearing lots of amazing things about it on the FPP podcast I wanted to see for myself what it was like. The size and compactness is nice but so far I haven’t managed to get a handle on the autofocus. From this roll of film I ended up with a lot of out-of-focus shots and I don’t know if that’s user error (I’m not giving the camera enough time to lock on focus before pressing the shutter) or other factors. I’ll be more careful on my next roll.
