Handled any Cosina CX1 or CX2

[Zen-shooter]

Since many Cosina made products are so well enthused and liked here at RFF, I just wanted to find out if you ever had one of these?

For those who aren't familiar with this camera I've linked the g**gle images

Hi - never. But surely this is the model upon which the Lomo was based?

Cosina make lots or equipment for other big names...

I used to own one of the CX models years ago. Bought at car boot sale for £3. It was in poor shape with rust around the door edges but it worked OK. The Lomo was apparently based on the Cosina. The results from the CX were similar to the Lomo. I only shot a few rolls, then sold it on. If you come across one cheap enough I say give it a go as the Lomo's cost too much.
