This is the Rarest Lens in a Pandemic
Weird lens aficionado Mathieu Stern has created the rarest of camera lenses with the most precious of materials (in the ongoing pandemic): a roll of toilet paper.

“You can say the results look like crap,” Stern says, “but it’s pretty normal for a toilet paper lens.”
Best of all, the lens can still be used for its alternative purpose if you find yourself in a crunch.
You can find more of Stern’s weird lens experiments on his blog and YouTube channel.
