    Well, anyone who knows about cameras can see that. The problem is that morons who think they're, 'Cool,' (they should try a Winter in Scotland some time) think these are the latest accessory.

    What angers me more than usual is that they've bought up the Lubitel TLR now. An excellent little camera with a stunning lens is now only available at ten times its former price.

    Lomo = decent Russian camera maker

    Lomography = The movement that trades and profits from the truth that "A fool and his money are soon parted"

    Regretably, the Lomography crooks have bought the rights to the Lomo name. If you see ANY Lomo camera advertised, ask it's country of manufacture. The frauds are made in China. The real thing says made in USSR or Russia.

    Real Lubitel around £30

    Fake from Urban Outfitters - now withdrawn but one guy apparently paid $400!
