Personally, I'd feel better turning one either into a fulgurator

Or into a night light

Stylish? Surely they're not serious? Embarrassing, would be a better word! I've no problem with consuming old stuff, cameras or whatever, but you have to be innovative and make something with merit. This has zip.

Now, taking photographs through the old lens after taking off the back, would be something. This looks like a 12 year old apple fan-boi with too much time on their hands... Skj.

that is really uncreative and a waste of a camera working or not.

If the camera was damaged beyond repair and couldn't possibly be used, I'd rather just use it as a paper-weight. Strapping a mobile phone to it is an insult, IMO. I think Sapata put it best......

Oooooooo as soon as the term "hip" is used I switch off. What a pile, dead camera or not.

That's simply awful. And "harder and harder to find film"? They sell 35mm film at my local CVS. I'm sick of people wishing film were dead.
