Don't make me laugh like that, I nearly coughed up a lung...

As an addendum to this. I noticed in the current Freestyle catalog that they now offer Polaroid backs for the Holga camera. Can digital backs be far behind.

The Cocarette has a 105mm F4.5 Tessar lens and produces 6x9cm negatives.
Apart from a very minor pinhole in the bellows (now fixed) and a dirty
lens (now cleaned) the camera is in amazing shape for 75+ years. I've
found that by stopping the Tessar down to F16 I get excellent sharpness
and resolution. Not bad for a CA$40 camera off Ebay.
But does it have matrix metering and will a digital back be available? :)

I think they added matrix metering in 1928, and the digital back is
due out next year :) I confess I'm not very impressed with the
speed of the auto-focus on this either - I can wait for hours and it still
doesn't focus !!!
