Picked up one of these toy cameras at the goodwill awile ago and it has become a favorite of mine.

I loved that they were clear and had a 27mm lens. I went and picked up another I saw at the goodwill so now i have a pink and purple version.

Image quality is interesting, they both seem to have a weird lens shift which makes the images pretty cool.

I've got one of those. Never shot it though, just wanted it for my transparent camera collection. I didn't figure it would even have any part of the image in focus, much less any sharpness like yours demonstrate. Maybe I'll drag it out for next year's Toy Camera Day.

btw: My favorites are the sprinkler, and old clothesline.
 
That sprinkler shot is certainly a cool image. For me it's definitely evocative of the feeling of getting up early and heading out to work. But that's likely just because I lived at an apartment complex that always watered the grass at about the time I left for work in the morning.

The camera certainly works well for you. Shoot that thing some more!
