Just wondering if anyone has had use of both, and what opinions might be. The Minox is currently available from Cameraland NY at about 600 USD (450 euro) inc. postage to here (although no idea what surcharge Irish Customs would slap on it). The SLC is retailing from the UK at about 1400 sterling (about 1600 euro). Perhaps the price difference should be telling me something?
24hourcampfire.com is a good source for info.
See the Big Eyes (hunters slang) article on the opening page (including a review of the Minox).
