    New range of Cuban SLRs

    Just back from a very enjoyable two weeks exploring Cuba - super place. Not at all rich and that has led to a lot of improvisation and reuse of what would otherwise be waste materials. And, of course, producing lots of things to sell to us tourists....
    Not sure what the performance is like but here is the Cristal SLR made from recycled beer cans - attention to detail is very good.



    And the Ciego Montero version, from soft drink cans, comes with a built in flash-



    Didn't buy either - too busy buying a baseball cap made from Coca Cola tins and a bag made from ring-pulls.

    Oh, and quite happy to help their camera industry by emptying the beer cans - most refreshing in temperatures of 36 C!

    Cheers, Chris.
    Just chuggin' along.

      Not sure of sales figures, but the stall-holder saw a guy with a Nikon and called him over saying "better quality than Nikon, you try one".
      Many might agree with his comment.
