My first camera was a Kodak Pocket Instamatic 130, still have it. In between that and the EM I had a Ricoh 35S fixed-focus 35mm P&S. Neither were terribly good, both were lots of fun.
The Fuji that I have is surprisingly good. It has a full range of aperture and shutter controls, a very decent rangefinder with focusing and a really very good 4.5cm f/2.8 lens. I used it for the first couple of years after I took up photography. My dad bouth a Spotmatic II in around 1972 or so, and I started sneaking it out of his case and using it after he'd had it for 6 months or so. After a while he just told me that he wanted it for his summer vacations and that I could use it the rest of the time.
