Well, you seem to imply that, xiao di di.
A $25 camera can equally do wonders too, no matter how fugly the
subject is. What's important is the heart of the picture
taker, whether he/she can capture the essence of the moment.
Wahh...I can almost see the smoke emitting from your wisely
aura.
I think your xiao di di is burning, and you are high from
smoking too much of your burnt xiao di di. 
With your expert experience, I'm sure you will have no trouble
taking pictures of your xiao di di with a PIN-HOLE Camera.
You might even be able to capture the ESSENCE of your xiao di di
at the right moment.
It's ok to be poor, but no girls will like a cheap bastard ok?
