The Lins-in-a-cap is still a lens (3 elements) 
and an aperture stopping down to 'only' f=64. 
Not really a pinhole.

The PC-lens-in-a-cap does not emulate a shift 
lens, it IS a shift lens, since the lens really 
may be moved from the optical axis (see Loreo site).

Both item are surely fun to play with.
