You are right. It uses IR focussing, so while the mechanism is kinda like a rangefinder, it isn't a rangefinder. Still an awesome and easy-to-use little camera though :)

I got pretty good mileage out of cheap Yashica Minster rangefinders. I am currently enjoying the use of a Nikon L35AF. It's a rangefinder, fully automatic (including autofocus), takes AA batteries and can likely be picked up for less than £30 no problem.

Can't really help on your other questions (I don't make notes, I don't rush to scan anything - I just wait till the film feels dry to touch, I don't use LR) but I know Ilford do (or did?) this. I've had them print a couple of my photos and the results and service were nothing short of fantastic.

Any amateur film photographer whose photos you have seen anywhere online is probably using a somewhat hybrid workflow, even if it is just to scan their prints. In fact, almost anyone who has prints from colour film has been subjected to hydbrid workflow. The computer age is here and a rare few...

I'd never heard of her before, but I really like what I saw.

A different perspective: the quality of image achievable by either medium is irrelevant. In my opinion, there is not, and hasn't been anything wrong with digital for a long time. Average people like me with average scanning capability cannot match the average digital camera image for image...

My advice would be to spend that little bit more and go for a cotton one, I did just that and I would never go back to using a cheap synthetic one if I can help it. They are just so much more comfortable and you won't have problems with getting warm (and potentially sweaty) in there!

Very nice, I love the colour rendition. What film is this?

Definitely one of the best selfies I've seen in a while! You got the focus bang on (the camera!):)

I like the first one - lovely tones and photo in general. The second one just looks a bit too dark for me.

Just a couple of grab shots taken while waiting around. Minolta X300 and Fuji Acros devved in D-76 1:1. I might try to do more like these if I get the chance :)

It's a wonderful photo but the horizon is a little off...

All round lovely set this. I am really digging the look!

I'd chalk it down to a matter of taste. I'm sure plenty others will have no problem and as it always is (and should be) with personal photos, as long as you're happy all is well :)

I'd say the one with the lanterns and the heads at the bottom bugs me the most. The people in the audience in the opera pic are also a bit distracting.
