I shot a project this past summer using toy film cameras and toy lenses (Holga) on m4/3 cameras. Those toy or plastic cameras included several Lomo's including thier fish eye camera. I had great results with those cameras and lenses because I got the look I wanted in the images for that particular project. That is one reason I was a bit excited to see this new lens lineup from Lomo.
By the way, I got an email from Fed Ex- the lens set will not arrive until Wednesday afternoon. Oh well......

I know this sounds hard to believe 
But Fed Ex lost the package containing the lens set. Oh, they claim they delivered it, but there were five people at my house that day and no one saw a thing.....
I contacted Fed Ex, of course, and Lomo, so we will see what happens.

Ok, I'm interested! Will want to see some example shots, so whoever gets these lenses, please post!
Personally, I think the whole LOMO thing is stupidly over-blown (here's and anti-LOMO rant I put up years ago (with film images): http://www.geocities.com/markhahn2000/lomo_kompakt_automat_camera.html)
Anyway, I'm a huge sucker... and probably always will be... so count me in!!!

Well, I'll let you know if and when I ever get mine and I will post some shots taken with the lenses. I should be hearing from Lomo and Fed Ex sometime Monday. I am hoping Lomo will send me another set while they sort this out with Fed Ex.

I´m using the Minitar lens from a broken LC-A on my Lumix G1, but the lens set from Lomography seems interesting too:

Nothing wrong with the Minitar lens at all! But how did you mount it for m43 use? Can you post some photos? I'm still wishing my Industar-69 had worked out better.
