Just avoid the youtuber/influencer ones. The Samsung AF Slim Zoom (35-70) is superb and you can buy one for under $30.
I barely use zoom lens on all my film cameras , lol
The AF Silm with 35mm fixed focal lens and 1/400 max shutter speed are fit me very well but I don't see any good price though.

I paid about $90 for a mint-condition Fuji Work Record (with the original box) point-and-shoot a couple of days ago, which can take photos that look like they came out of National Geographic. Check out the examples here: https://www.lomography.com/cameras/3358878-fuji-work-record/photos?order=popular
Huss has posted samples from his as well, all great, and I'm thankful he brought this camera to our collective attention.
It should arrive on Monday and I can't wait to start using it! I think I'll get rid of my SLRs and just use this plus my two rangefinder cameras for shooting on film (oh and my Mamiya C330 for medium format).
It was on my list but after I did some researched it is not really fit me.
1/250 max shutter speed is bit slow for me shooting on street. Also I already have GR III as my daily camera I'm not sure if I'm still looking for another camera with same focal length.

Ah yes, I hear you on the shutter speed limitation but I've found that I rarely shoot faster than that myself so it works for me. Even when I'm shooting concerts and dances on digital I never go higher than 1/160, even with long lenses, and am usually at 1/125; I like a bit of motion blur when I'm taking photos of people and things that are moving. Feels more true to life and emotive to me than frozen images. But I could see how faster speeds would be useful for street.

If 1/250 is slow just pan with the action - makes for a much more interesting shot!

Just because it has a zoom does not mean you need to use it. I hardly ever do. it defaults to the 35mm setting.
What it does have is a SNAP mode where it presets focus so it responds instantly - great for grabbing hectic street shots.
If you are patient you should be able to get a AF Slim for under $100. One just sold for $61 on 7/15/24. Just be patient. You can create a notification on ebay so they let you know when one appears.

These first three shots from this roll of Kentmere Pan 400 were rated at 3200 and push processed (+3) using Df96. This was my first roll of film I developed using my new Patterson tank and reels and Df96 for that matter. I had a heck of a time loading this roll onto the reels. I dropped the film on the floor three times in what initially thought was a completely dark room, but after my eyes adjusted I could see a few various small LED's lit on various gadgets my son has in the basement-some of which were on chargers on the floor, of course. I also forgot to remove my Apple Watch which dutifully lit up as soon as the film was free of the paper backing. Having said all that, I was really pleased with how the Kentmere did pushed three stops and done with the mono bath. I'll get better I'm sure with practice but this first roll was an adventure!
If you're curious as to why I pushed the film to 3200 I wanted to see if it was a viable cheaper replacement for other 3200 ISO films and to see if I could get better contrast and lower grain with this film stock based on reviews that I have read or YT videos I've seen. I have 9 more rolls of the 120 Kentmere so I'll continue experimenting with it. I've also read that the 35mm variant looks different than the 120 so I bought two rolls of 35mm to try that as well.

Loading the reel will get easier with practice. Nice work for the first attempt at home development.

I used to use a coat closet with a big blanket over it as my changing room!
For me the biggest hack for loading reels is to cut the film leader with rounded or chamfered edges.
I always find the not pushing the reel halves together as you wind also helps prevent binding. I sort of pull out lightly as I crank the reels.
Patterson is great stuff, still made in the UK I believe, but I really like the design on the Omega reels, also sold as Arista Premium that Freestyle sells. They have a huge guide/lip on them. . You can see them on the B&H website here.

Thanks for the feedback and encouragement! I'm most familiar with Hewes reels and I plan on buying a set of those to use for the 120. The 35mm film loaded a lot easier than the 120 on the plastic Patterson reels. Those images are on the Harman thread. The Omega reels look promising.
All of this is about fun. Also, I was just happy to get my negatives processed in minutes instead of weeks! I'm tired of always waiting on the lab to process my film.
Getting the Bellini C-41 is next. Then ECN-2...

Below is what I usually/what I like do on the street.
The photo was took by F3hp. I'm always looking for another camera beside M6 for street photography.
Another RF ? I had tried Minolta Hi Matic E and Olympus XA. The Hi Matic is not a good option. The XA I'm still haven't developed the film yet but it should be better than Hi Matic since at least I could adjust the aperture.
A good AF P&S ? That is why I'm waiting for the new Rollei AF.
