1,000 Titans

Apparently the Titan pinhole camera has sold 1,000 units and still going strong.

Wasn't 1000 the magic number Harman needed to sell in order to start making a profit?

Seems I remember hearing that in an interview.

Happy to see this!  Really "chuffed" as you guys say!   :)

THey had sold it just prior to Damion, Ed and I arriving at Focus on Imaging to an Art Student.  Mike Walker was telling us all about it - as a reward she was given the new longer focal length cones to go with it.

We missed all the fun by minutes apparently.

I must say that's pretty good news.

I heard it was 2000 that they've sold.

Debby - it's definitely only a 1000 so far - we got it straight from the Horse's mouth last week. UNless of course things have gone mental in the last couple of week that is!

(actually it might not be wise referring to Stephen Brierley as a horse ...)

1000,  that's great and I'm happy to say that I did my part. Mike Walker definitely nailed it with the Titan, love mine, it's just a great camera.
