Subject: [Leica] Another camera classic bites the dust

In the latest issue of "Fotomagazin" (Germany) there is an article 
announcing the demise of the LOMO.
A cult camera in some circles in Austria and Germany, where 
"LOMOgraphie" was all the rage a few yearsago. It looks (looked) like a 
cheap commie-copy of the Cosina CX-2,which actually takes a fair snap. 
LOMOgraphie was characterised by  out of focus, badly framed, tilted, 
adventurously exposed pictures (mostly of wild people at even wilder 
parties)

RIP LOMO
