Rollei Prego Zoom Test

You point and then you shoot. Some are inexpensive. Some are very expensive.

Phil, That's surely a fine Christmas present-- many features and excellent results. It seems to handle a lot of sky in the frame well; does it have exposure compensation?

Not that I've noticed, Bill. But then I haven't worked through all ten shooting modes yet.

'Preggers' is more common here, which I think came over from the UK. Prego is also the name of a nationally marketed brand of spaghetti sauce.

That's odd. Someone posting a reply to my latest post, and somehow it got put in with my post. Maybe a malfunction of the "Quote" button? Anyone want to lay claim to the below addition?

That's okay, Kalle. I was just hoping it wasn't a new fault introduced during the last crash.

The Prego was an awesome P&S
I bought it in 96 and used it to hike around the Andes, then during my grad school years and with my 1st child...
until it finally gave up on 2004

Super advanced features for the time, the intervalometer rocked!
