I just LOVE Holgas. They are soooooo cute." Not long ago in Boston, at a large art supply store, I discovered that the Holga and it's sibling Lomo Colorsplash are now THE hottest item for a certain age group--college age art students. There was a large display set up near one of the checkouts. I had never seen them and spent some time playing with one, and asked the sales assistant about it. She explained that they were selling like hotcakes. I gather that these cameras are designed to produce special "artsy" effects straight out of the box. Then, one of my daughters put it on her Christmas wish list! Ken Frazier Weston, CT USA
