Thanks for your good words. What I can said is thanks to those who own our
cameras. Thanks to all your supports.

One more thing I can tell is there is more than 15 layers of hand paint
lacquer for the finishing, all layers are applied by hand brush, not air
spray gun. The ancient coloring and finishing method we adapted is now all
wooden industry (or wooden product factory) will not use again because of
the expensive production cost!!

Sorry I don't know what you mean "stuff sack"? It seems we don't have a sack
comes with the camera, is you mean the bubble-wrap? Now we got some camera
owners ask for this sack!...... It seems I must design one now....:-)
Thanks again.

If anyone who still don't have a pinhole camera, don't hestitate to get one
(or make one), the pinhole world is wonderful!
Let's come together to enjoy it and celebrate at the 2nd Worldwide Pinhole
Photography day at http://www.pinholeday.org
