bob, be _very_ careful not to confuse the holga, which is a cheap piece of
garbage camera, with the leica-h, which is a finely crafted piece of work,
tuned and honed to perfection by the best german craftsmen. the difference
is in the prints! 

oh, wait, it's not in the prints, it's on the nameplate.
