Absolutely! And it's been my camera of choice on cycling trips. Two weeks cycle camping in the pyrennees type trips that is. Fits beautifully in a handlebar bag, bum bag, shirt back pocket, or just slung over the shoulder just ready for taking snaps of the view or fellow cyclists puffing up the mountains behind you. Mine has survived over 18 years of being thrown in my bag. Eehhh, they don't make 'em like they used to!
