Paul Smith Makes Lomo Camera Fashionable with Fisheye No.2
Posted by Kit Eaton at 8:32 PM on November 7, 2008
Paul Smith's Fisheye No.2 Lomo camera is a subtle mixture of two things: The 180-degree bug-eye lens creates distorted images that are even more arty than your usual Lomograph. Plus to the dwindling number of wet-chemistry photography fans (including myself) Lomography is something of a fashion-statement all of its own. The camera has bulb setting for long exposures, a multiple-exposure setting, built-in flash and a hotshoe, and is dressed up in trademark Paul Smith stripes. And it's limited edition, so it's going for a fashionably high $US150. [PaulSmith via LikeCool]
Leave it to the crazy Lomography heads to keep the flame of analogue photography alive and kicking in this cold digital world of ours, like an '80s top-of-the-charts song always resisting to die: Their new RedScale Negative 100 film gives a vision of the world in intense reds, smooth oranges oranges, and mellow yellows look to all your analogue photographs, but also having highlights in other colours, which appear in an unpredictable way.
