Playful cameras
Lisa VollmerLightweight, portable, and decidedly low-tech, these two cameras go where more expensive ones can't, encouraging spontaneous, off-the-cuff photography.

The Lomographic Pop 9 (top right; $36; www.amazon.com) has nine lenses that snap at the same time. And the Lomo Super-Sampler (top left; $35; www.amazon.com) takes a series of four shots over two seconds, capturing changes in movement. The best places to give them a try:
* In the big city. Shoot skylines at night.
* At the dog park. Snap Fido in hot pursuit of his favorite tennis ball.
* At the beach. Capture kids jumping in the water.
* En route. From your car or bike, click away at fleeting landscapes.
