Don't underestimate the purchasing power and taste of those girls and boys.

What makes you think we don't? Perhsaps the gays here are quiet about their sexual preference because it has nothing to do with photography. |

Well a hello kitty edition would sell very quickly. Its okay for customisable cameras, but if it becomes a mode accessory. MEH ! its not the aim
the serie from 21 to 35 is the most ugly, but for the eyeys of fashion vistims the best looking maybe.

Basically "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" I think.
Let's see the outcome of this Pentax's bold movement.
In japan particularly young girls day to day fashion becomes
the new trend, carrying an old camera is already passe now.
Of course it is in all those young gals fashion sense.

Actually these look like the plastic toys from Vietnamese flea market sellers for 4 dollars, full of phtalates, carcinoms and other cheap stuff...
I would highly recommend the most ugly to the wildlife photographers to be invisible in forest, e.g. the yellow or pink, hehe:-) |

Excellent Nesster!
I have been shooting some Portraits with children lately.
You are so correct. They would not be able to keep their eyes off a camera like this
