Hi Cam. Might be an idea to update everyone rather than just one person.
Creator Cameron Texter on May 10
Hi Brad. I'll message you
Creator Brad Dancer on May 10
i know its probably not worth leaving a note here, but anything Cameron?
Creator Andrea Cuda on March 17
Money back please
Creator Brad Dancer on March 2
So, cameron - what's the latest update?
Creator Terry Elvers on February 28
Cam;
Update please.
Creator Andrea Cuda on February 19
Your analogy is wrong by the way, my comments can never be compared to what you were describing.
Creator Andrea Cuda on February 19
and I never said I took back my comments, I said I "would" if you did something to prove me wrong, but so far you haven't
Creator Andrea Cuda on February 19
Your response to my comment is only valid if there is that email from the Lens baby CEO. Post the email Cameron
Creator Andrea Cuda on February 17
I agree James. Please let me know what I can do. And Also Cameron your updates, can't be the same as the last one. You must truly thing we are stupid
Creator James Petts on February 16
OK, time to set up a warning website I think.
I have seen zero honesty, openness, accountability and responsibility from Cameron here. Excuse after excuse after excuse, and whining that it's not Cameron's fault.
This will be inscribed on the internet forever.
Cameron, you took a shit with your clothes on, and you're not going to be able to wash it off.
Creator Cameron Texter on February 15
@Terry, I will leave an update soon.
Creator Cameron Texter on February 15
@Andrea, I didn't say you or anyone needs to feel guilty, only I do. And you've got it all wrong, you say that statement as if the end of this project all happened at the beginning and I planned it all out.
This whole project started with a goal of me being able to deliver products to everyone, you included. Like just about every single project on here, there is always going to be hiccups along the way, nothing and no process is completely perfect, bound to go perfectly every time with every scenario. I am deeply sorry that this doesn't happen, but you express your frustration as if I told everyone that I am not going to be delivering a product at all, but I did not say that, I will be delivering a product as I feel all of you deserve a product.
I did not build all of this from the ground based on the understanding that I would later have it removed by legal means just so I could take all of your money and waste it on a product that has not only failed you all, but has also failed me. Does that make any sense to you for anyone to do that? I would not use all of your money knowing that my product would be removed. That is not right.
And I did not say any of you would have to put a penny toward the new project. But I said anyone could if they Wanted, but I also said I didn't expect anyone to because they didn't have to.
And though I appreciate you "taking your comments back", there is no "fixing" whatever it is that you said. That's like beating the mess out of someone, stealing everything on them, and then saying sorry, nothing can fix the damage.
And the reason there was legal issues with the Lynny in this project is because it has a flexible body, and Lensbaby claims to have a patent on that general idea. Nothing I can do but just make a camera lens that does not use any features in their patents, which is what I am doing now.
Creator Terry Elvers on February 15
Cam;
Almost 2 weeks.
How about the update we agreed on?
Thanks
Terry
Creator Andrea Cuda on February 8
another concern of mine is that you are looking to get other people to help fund this next revision of Lynny lens. Another group of people that you are going to try and take advantage of. That's why you leave your comment open for people to post. If you had not wronged anyone no one would leave you unjust comments. I think everyone that was supporting you were rooting for you. It was your actions that led to this backlash, and it is up to us as internet community to make sure you don't do the same to some other good hearted people.
Creator Andrea Cuda on February 8
Hey Cameron
Your apologies aren't going to cut it. I will not be held guilty because of your failure to deliver. When you say you will be able to do something for a certain amount, take the money in advance, come up with a multitude of excuse, to finally put the blame on someone else, and then expect me and everyone else to foot the bill. That in my eyes is a scam, as much as is is for those Niger Princes wanting me to help them get their money out of Africa.
I think if you had kept updates more frequent and didn't leave this detail out until the last minute I may have even believed you. But for me I feel it's too late. The reason why you are getting negative comments is because people feel duped. If you are not a scammer give me my money back. I will gladly go on all those websites that I posted those comments on, and take them back, and tell them what an upright citizen of the interwebs you are. But I have a feeling I'm not going to have to do that.
Below you say and I quote "As I said, if I am unable to deliver a Lynny Lens, I will be refunding" I'm going to be that voice of reason for you. ( if you are truly not a scam artist) You will not be able to deliver this product. Ever. What makes you think that Lensbaby if they were able to stop you now, they will not do it at your next revision.
Therefor you will NOT be able to deliver, and should be giving us a refund. If you are what you say you are.
Also maybe a good show of faith you post that email you got from the CEO of LensBaby.
Hope to hear back from you soon.
Creator Cameron Texter on February 6
@Terry, I will try to do that for you all.
Sorry about all of this, everyone.
Creator Terry Elvers on February 5
Cam;
I will still ride on this journey with you, as I have been from the original KS campaign, through the indegogo camapaign, and then this KS campaign.
However
I do feel it is my right to expect, and receive REGULAR updates. This is the least you can do. You want us to all be happy? Fine. I will take you at your word (although it is a bit hard to swallow) and not post negative comments, demand a refuld, etc. AS LONG AS YOU KEEP US UPDATED. Every 1 - 2 weeks. Faithfully. NO MATTER WHAT.
Agreed?
Creator James Petts on February 1
You ask us to be angry at Lensbaby: why? They sell and ship product to customers. You call them your competitors: that's a laugh. You don't have anything to sell.
I want my money back now: I don't want it mixed in with other money on another doomed project. Money back, please.
Creator Cameron Texter on February 1
@Andrea I understand what you're saying, and if the solution has to be a refund, the it will be. But instead I am working extremely hard to deliver a much better product to you all, a product which will be far better in many ways. Also I can tell you exactly the reasons why I disable comments, first, to prevent spammy comments with virus links, as when I allowed them before that's the majority of what I got, automated spam comments. And honestly, I hate to say Andrea, but another reason is to prevent negative comments like yours, which you filled up the facebook business page and twitter. I understand your frustration, I do, but to ask for a refund, and within minutes, post negative comments on my accounts and here is not what a person wanting something would normally do to get what they want. As I said, if I am unable to deliver a Lynny Lens, I will be refunding, but please, refrain from posting negative comments on my accounts. I am not a scam artist, that is just completely untrue, but I understand your disappointment and frustration.
@jcip There should be no problem sending the whole set as you ordered. The only difference will be the actual model. Everything else about everyones orders will remain the same.
@everyone I really need you all to know that this alternative path is going to make you much happier in the end, as the new products are going to be FAR more superior and much more professional and much more easier to use by far, and it have much more customizability options.
Also I mentioned in the update that I do not ask or require that you pledge to the new project, but it was entirely up to you to decide. And I also said that no matter what you do, I will send you the lens no matter what.
It's my never ending goal to see to it that all of you are happy end the end, please let me try and please don't try to take me down more than I have already been. I am trying to make you all happy. No matter what it takes
Creator jcip on February 1
i believe what alot of us have pledged for a WHOLE SET of the lens, NOT just the main lynny part
with your lynny7 or 8, it's just ONE main body, isn't it?
then it's a totally different things than what alot of us was hoping to get
even thought, as you've said, we don't need to put in extra money to your new lynny7 or 8 main part itself, but in a way, if we want to get what we pledged originally for a set, we'll have to buy more parts from you in the future, isn't it?
as i was hoping to get a whole set, and then that will be it
with the lynny7 or 8, even if we do receive it, it won't be able to do everything we were suppose to be able to do if we get a whole set
Creator Andrea Cuda on February 1
Funny how no one is allowed to comment on the new website Cameron. Why is that?
Creator Andrea Cuda on February 1
If Cameron you do not start handing out refunds then, you will force us to make sure we post on your other websites, and kickstarter type websites that you are just a scam artist.
Please do the right thing, and refund the money to the people who are tired of hearing the excuses, because at this point that is all they are.
Creator Cameron Texter on February 1
@James, Please know that the info I said was not BS, I had just gotten the email from the company yesterday, and yesterday and the day before is when I built the lenses and packed them up. I had 11 of them ready to ship today, but the email I received yesterday makes that not possible. As I mentioned in the comment on the update, I do not ask or require that you pledge to the new project. I will ship you a lens of your choice no matter what. And the $25,000 goal is probably too low. Please know having product produced is very expensive, the Lynny rubber was almost $2000 alone, and it's just a hollow tube. The new models have about 13 parts which will cost thousands per part.
Creator James Petts on February 1
With the latest update, this is dead and buried. Go buy a Lensbaby. Cameron had everything ready to ship today but couldn't? Ah, I love the smell of BS in the morning.
But if you DO want a Lynny, you can still get one by pledging $250 or $275 to the NEW version (goal $25,000). Also, I have a bridge to sell.
Creator Terry Elvers on January 24
Update.
Now please.
Due to the timeframe taken, weekly updates (or at least every 2 weeks) are in order.
Creator Cameron Texter on January 7
Hi everyone. I am so sorry for the lack of communication. I have been having a lot of issues with internet and lack of time.
I have not and will not forget about you all. I don't want to keep anyone waiting. I came up with a plan, to go ahead and just ship them out slowly, not all at once. That way everyone will get them. I was originally thinking I was just going to ship them all out at once, which in this case isn't the best thing to do. I have some parts on the way, and I will begin making the lenses next week, and will ship them out to everyone slowly but steady. I am so sorry everyone, Terry, Brad, and James, this is not vaporware, the product has been made thanks to the Kickstarter project, it's finalized and ready to go, it's just money is low because of higher costs to make this, but I will try to begin shipping them out really soon.

Our refunds are being shipped from the factory now. They are all in a ship that was attacked by pirates and taken to never-never land along with the lenses. Peter Pan has been notified, but the lost boys cannot find them either.
May as well laugh, we just got the shaft.
Shame on you Cameron... I really wanted to believe in thsi, but am SO disappointed. Will make sure to NEVER back another of your projects.
It is not even the (ridiculous) delays... it is the TERRIBLE LACK OF COMMUNICATION!!!

its time to either just own up that its over or figure out something else. Just let us know please

Cameron;
Seriously, what is the status?
I have backed you since the first iteration on KS, then Inde, then KS.
I am starting to wonder about this project... can you realistically do it?
Please give us a status update, and let us know when (I still believe in you, so it is "when" not "if") we can expect the lynny to ship.
Thanks
Terry

This is all BS now. If you backed this, you might as well kiss your money goodbye.
Yet another vaporware KS project, with the "buy the cheaper already shipping" option offered when it all went tits-up.
Creator James Petts on December 13
I'm getting a really bad feeling about this project. My confidence that anything is ever going to appear is diminishing.

Hi there looking for either some update , or a refund.
Creator Michael Grafton on December 8
Moving. Can I update my shipping address? Thanks!
Creator Terry Elvers on December 6
Have not heard anything for almost a month...
how about an update, please.
Creator Cameron Texter on November 12, 2012
Just made an update (number 30)
Creator Brad Dancer on November 12, 2012
Been awhile, any updates?
Creator Richard Greene on September 27, 2012
I would like the cool gray color.

@Michael - You want me to send with USPS?
Creator Michael Grafton on August 10, 2012
My Afghan mailing address is considered a US POST OFFICE box delivery.
All you need to do is put regualr postage on it and send it to the address i provided. No special fees or packaging requried.
the onlyu reason I mentioned it at all is I couldn't see whether you are sending them UPS or US Post Office.
Creator Michael Grafton on August 10, 2012
I live in AFGHANISTAN on a base with APO mail service.
There was no blank for extra comments on the order form so I asked you to send me a NIKON version via USMAIL in the "type" blank. I wasn't sure if you planned on mail or UPS.
I look forward to using my new lens soon!!! Mike

@Pascual - send me an email at support at lynnylens dot com and we'll fix that.
Creator Pascual Vidal González on August 9, 2012
Hey. Congratulations you have achieved the goal.
I have a problem. I live in Spain but I have not noticed add shipping charges. How I can add the missing money? A greeting.
PD- Sorry for my bad english
Creator David Elliott on August 9, 2012
Let's hope nobody pulls out at the last minute. Cameron has really worked hard to get this project funded.
Creator Matthias Stolt on August 8, 2012
Yes! The line has been crossed! Congratulation Cameron!
Creator Scott on August 6, 2012
Getting close to the finish now. If it looks like falling short, each backer could throw in another $20, give or take, to get it over the line. I guess it depends on how much we all want one.
Creator Joel Denyes on August 3, 2012
Cameron - I would love to see some snaps (and video) of people, I'm interested in using these lenses to add some "visual hot sauce" to the traditional video interview and still photos of peeps. Any chance you can take/post some photos containing humans?
Creator Cameron Texter on July 18, 2012
@Terry - Photos have been taken today and have been posted near the top of the page. Thank you!
Creator Terry Elvers on July 18, 2012
Post some pics that show what the lens can do.
Take the same photo with a std lens and with yours to show the creative uses.
Would be easier to show Mt friends why the should buy as well.
Thanks
Terry
Creator Cameron Texter on July 10, 2012
@Pauline - That makes me happy to hear! Glad you can't wait! I can't wait to ship one to you! It sure will transform your photos!
@Matthias - Yes, it is an alternative to the Lensbaby, so far the only one I know of. But it's a little different compared to the Lensbaby, but in good ways.
