    While a number of sites do say that the calculator is made from recycled Canon Powershot lenses, Canon says they use "residual material from Canon prism lenses". Still, this is pretty much an environmental novelty.

    It'd be beyond hilarious if they put a red stripe around it and called it an 'L' series calculator...=P
