Petri Color 35

Yes, the diva looks even better in black! This is my 2nd Petri Colour 35, this time in black edition. As you all know, I find these cameras absolutely gorgeous and one of the all time greats. Apart from the Rollei 35, nothing looks as good or is so beautifully detailed as this Petri. The camera was born under a bold concept, to be innovative and beautiful, Bauhaus at its best. I really like the idea of not having any command on the lens barrel, no fosing, no aperture/speed ring. If we think a bit, that is todays ergonomics with digital compacts. As Panasonic seems to be the boldest and the one who has the secret to mix modern design with historical hints, please build a Lumix that looks as good as this Petri,,,
