You still taking contributions, Sol?< Yes, the gallery is still open for contributions. I have a couple of updates to do since before christmas. I also bought a new kind of i-zone in Japan, it's called a Xiao Be (the i-zone was marketed as the Xiao in Japan anyway), no flash but 3 weather settings that actually work (although they take a bit of getting used to) plus v.compact design only photo of it on the web I could find http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~hw6k-asi/work27_04.html it's the silver one on the right. Actually this is a cool site that's probably even better if you can read Japanese, lots of picture of different (and somewhat obscure) toy cameras. A real toy camera otaku site methinks. Xiao Be is really cheap too, less than half the price i-zones sell for in the UK. The pictures taken with it are better than the i-zone thanks to the third weather setting which still gives bright pictures in low light, however the absence of a flash means no indoor pics. The other great thing is the size....the original i-zone was really bulky but the Xiao Be fits easily in the pocket, also when there's no film in it it compacts even more...it's the best i-zone yet! Unfortunately the first film I put through it didn't go through properly so all my pictures had a quarter black rectangle..this used to happen with my i-zone too :( anyway, submit pics if you have 'em and new updates soon.... cheers, Sol.
