I second Eagle on the PENTAX Espio 135M, i bought this camera for the last trip i went on and all my pics are awesome. It took up no room, was light and easy to hold. I personally use 800ISO in my cameras, but thats just me.

Yay! We're all getting Pentax cameras! I've never used 800 outside of taking pictures at sporting events. I prefer to use 400...but that's a preference and means absolutely nothing I'm worried about getting through customs inspection though. I don't want them to zap my film.

LIBBY, if you're worried about your Film getting through Customs, be absolutely sure to take it in carry-on -- Do NOT carry film in checked luggage! Some of the checked Baggage Scanners are extremely powerful!
One other thing, the possibility of film damage from airport scanners increases with the ASA speed. In other words, an 800 ASA Film is more likely to be damaged than a 400 ASA Film. I suspect this is a cumulative effect -- the more times a particular roll of film is run through a Scanner, the more possibility of damage. I haven't heard of many people having problems with this, but it's something to keep in mind.
Nice to see everyone is enjoying their Pentax Cameras! Cheers!!!
