In this video I’m reviewing the Olympus XA2 and why, after taking it through Paris and London, I genuinely think it’s one of the best travel film cameras you can buy right now. I tell the whole estate sale story (yes, I found the XA2 plus the A11 flash for $20), how I checked that it still worked, and why I chose Fuji 400 for the trip. Then I walk through the design—tiny body, clamshell open-and-shoot vibe, and how easy it is to carry when I’m already traveling with stuff like my Osmo Pocket 3 and my Canon R8. I also break down how the XA2 actually shoots: it’s mostly automatic, with ISO selection and simple zone focusing (close, mid, infinity). One of my biggest tips is rating Fuji 400 at ISO 200 to give the camera more light, because it can stop down and/or drag shutter if the scene is darker—leading to motion blur. The big takeaways: it’s small, sharp, ridiculously fun, and it nails that nostalgic early-2000s point-and-shoot look. If you want a lightweight film camera for travel in 2025, I’d absolutely recommend it.
