Likea MPH Is A Cardboard Replica Of The Leica Pinhole Cams

If you like the looks of the Leica series of cameras like the M9, but don't want to spend $7,000 to buy the real deal, you can get a cheap knockoff. The knockoff looks a lot like the real thing and even has a name and logo that look similar.

The knockoff camera is called the Likea MPH and it sells for $19.95. The big catch is that the camera is apparently built from cardboard and you have to glue and tape the thing together. It can be reused if you "are careful with your gluing and taping" according to the maker.

The advance mechanism for the film is a paperclip, that's high class right there. The cam shoots with 35mm film, which means you will need to get the pics developed. There are also instructions on how to get the exposed film out of the camera without ruining it with light exposure.
