WTF? 28mm-Bokehmorphic-lens

Would you prefer bokakeh?

"Bokehmorphic" makes sense because you can change the shape of the bokeh.
 
Tastless maybe, but don't be too hard on SLR Magic after all these are being touted as 'toy lenses' and it's only for a bit of 'fun'. No different to the 'tastless' in-camera 'art/style filters' all p&s cameras seem to come with these days. Think fish eye, pop art, vignette, old photo, etc....
 
It's nothing new. Folks used to do this in the 70's as well. I have a few photo books that describe the process.
 
You'd love it Jsrockit, imagine that puck fair light bulb shot with some blurry hearts in the background... sweet.
 
perfect for those that cannot handle a pen knife and some black cardboard! 125 bucks well spent, eh?

this odd shaped bokeh thing takes 3min to get boring. i made a cardboard mask once to shoot some custom bokeh images for a photography blog i had with some friends

I'd prefer that people didn't concentrate on bokeh as the #1 element in a photo above content, composition, etc. Yes, I'd prefer bokakeh...at least that is funny. However, wouldn't that be more appropriate for a lens that squirts out something one you hit the shutter?
 
No-one notice the included coloured bands that you can put around the lens? Pink, Lime, Yellow.. what's not to like?
 
Excerpt from 'Bokehmorphosis':

"One day Gregor Samsa wakes up to find that his bokeh has been transformed into a giant insect."
 
This is a riot! I bet if there was a $ insert, we would see this one in the first D800 commercial.
