Canon S-30 'post-impact' <- I dropped it on the floor, maybe prism or color chip got f'd up.
you can see more , view my profile and go to the photobucket page.

Since this is a digital image, I'm gonna move this thread over to the general gallery. We're basically film geeks stumping about here in the alt forum.
Another "happy accident" photo.
NEVER get this camera repaired!
