Now, made from a real old tin ... That would be better.

They launched it earlier this Summer...
Somehow, I didn't feel much attraction to them. Made me think of that Sardine segment in the movie The Burbs...

Copied from one of these style cameras:

Moominsean, that's a fantastic camera.

That Sardina is at least a thoughtful design: centered viewfinder, cable release, centered tripod mount, zone focus. I would buy a dozen at $6 each, but one a $60 is a little steep for some plastic fun.

I must admit, I do have a Diana Mini, but it's because she shoots square and I didn't know the Taxona existed at the time.

i was very tempted since it has a 21mm lens. the 35mm on my olympus stylus is wide enough for almost all situations but there are sometimes when i wish it was just a tad bit wider.

i wouldnt buy one for $60 though what a rip.

I squealed like a little girl when i saw this in a camera shop in Amsterdam last month. I just like the squid.
I'll wait until I can find a 2nd hand one for £5 like the lomo fisheye cam (which also made me squeal when I saw it had a pretty koi fish on the top of it)
