IMHO it gets boring after playing for an afternoon with it. :)

And usually the debate starts here. The Lensbaby-fans will all shout that's a whole new way of photographing, a way of live. I think it's a poor mans tilt&shift-lens. :)

Sure, it can be fun for those 90 bucks or so, but I think that the effect gets tiring soon, unless you're some highly appreciated artsy-fartsy photographer.
