Really like it. I think I'd have to invest in a better scanner too though. I still want one of these.

A crappy scanner would just add to the lomo feel. OMJF! I'd spend less on a pretty damn good digital compact. Mark

I know! The results when used with Natura ASA1600 film though in available light conditions are nothing short of stunning IMO.

It's only a 1:2.8 - my Minolta 50mm goes to 1:1.7 and the Mamiya 50mm is a 1:2. Neither of which cost £300.

It's the whole package I like. The compact-ness (?), NP mode when using Natura/Sensia 1600, etc etc. Sure I could just buy a fast f/1.4 50mm but then that's not really the point. Objects of desire aren't always the most cost effective/best solution but that doesnt stop us wanting them

 Say no more. It's often not what an object does, it's how it does it.

Just as an FYI/gloat-past; I now own one of these. It's awesome. That is all (for now).

Even the 1.4 minolta 50mm isn't £300 if you shop about
