I have a COLORIST II and a VIVID. Like them both.
The COLORIST II is my prefered.

Why:
-Good sharp lenses.
-Range and viewfinder in ONE eyepiece.
-STANDARD HOT-shoe.
-easy loading.
-fairly lightweight.
-fairly reliable mechanics EXCEPT the plastic tale-up spool that breaks very
easily and just spins around aimlessly. It can be repaired (I did it) but it
takes some time and requires taking off top and bottomplate and removing the
spindle.
-rewinding may be somewhat painfull to your fingers. AUTCH !

I'd say if the price is right, Go for it ! It's really wonderfull.

Hope this helps and ....Good Luck !
Patrick.
