Some recent work, though I've just been putzing around for the most part. Just now collecting a 4x5 kit for a big project over the next year or so. All of these were shot with the GSW690III and various films. Keep up the shooting, everyone!
Are there any images in particular that stand out to you in this thread as a starting point? Do you like B&W or color, and high contrast or low contrast? Do you have a price point in mind for your film stock? A roll of Velvia with processing and scanning might cost more than your camera.
As far as getting good results from the camera, I don't know the EU-mini, but it appears to be a very basic point and shoot. It is possible to get good results with such a camera, but the photographer probably wont have much control of the camera settings. However composition and content are things the photographer can control with such a camera and they go a long way in creating good results. I don't know that you can consistently get the same quality results, but you should be able to get a good shot when the conditions are right with that camera.

This photo is superb
what do you guys recommend ? might grab new camera around 100*200$
I don't think new is the answer to your camera problem. I think you'll want to look for a used camera in that price range. You want something with a good lens, a reasonably fast lens and some controls like aperture priority or manual mode and a metering indication.
I've taken some really great shots with my big mini which is basically just a PnS like you have there. Grab a brick of Superia from B&H for $1.99 a roll and see how 10 or 20 rolls go. I recommend developing and scanning with NCPS.

Yes sir! i meant used camera by saying new one gonna order 7D or T2i in soon.it will be good also getting film slr (canon or others)
Manuel focus or AF etc..Totally newbie about film
angeloks - cool catacombs shots. I just got a couple rolls back of Portra 400, and am blown away (again) about how good this film is. I'd post them, but they are just snapshots of friends, so not necessarily photographically interesting.
Nate - nice photos. I'm not going to comment on yours here anymore because I've been doing it on flickr. haha.
