A couple of possibilities:
1. That's all they make for film these days.
2. You blundered onto a leftover April Fool's site.

Are you joking? Those are all cameras specifically sold for lomography
enthusiasts. They each have features used by people who like this
genre.

Just checked: Flickr has 11882 lomo-related *groups*, and over a million
and a half photos tagged "lomo". So yes, they're fairly popular in
certain circles.

I think that some of them (photos) look pretty nice, and some of my
friends have taken great photos with them. I suspect that the sense of
achievement that must come with getting any correctly exposed frames at
all must account for some of the appeal.

Cheers,

I recognize that some people like lomography and buy cameras for this
purpose. To me, they look my mistakes in regular photography.

It is not quite my idea of great photography, but I have fun playing
with some of the Lomo effects I have available with my iPhone. The
iPhone usually takes better shots than this, but as you said, some
people like the effect. ;-)

No film was harmed in the production of the above shot.
