Interesting... I wonder if anyone can make one for the LOMOs?

Also - You can set your Canon up for cine style shooting in camera. Just 
go into the menu and adjust the saturation, contrast, sharpness, and 
color tones. Of course, it's probably gonna be different than an actual 
lens, but it's better than nothing.

Shot a little B&W last week - both high-contrast, normal, and 
low-contrast (all in camera adjustments). It also has an orange (as well 
as green, yellow and red) filter setting in the camera for B&W. I tested 
with an actual orange filter and with the orange filter setting. The in 
camera setting looked a little different, but good enough that I don't 
think I'll bother carrying a filter set...

BTW: Have a f1.8, 50mm Pentacon lens on the front of my Canon right now. 
Which makes this camera great for ultra-low light; I'm getting shots 
you'd not believe. It's pretty grainy, but if you go into the menu deep 
enough, you can set the camera to a 12,800 ISO...
