This is one of those videos that’ll make you feel all warm inside. Over 20 lomographers (toy camera-shooting people) from London got together to create a stop-motion video, combining their various films and shots for what you can see here:
Another Hipstamatic-like app for Android, with Retro Camera following in Fxcamera‘s footsteps by turning your snaps into ye olde worldly photos. It’s got four film cameras to “shoot” with, that in turn produce four different lomo-esque effects.
Pull the trigger-cord, and away the panoramic photos snap, with the camera spinning on its axis. It’s one of the coolest (and cheapest) ways to shoot 360-degree photos, and as it’s from Lomography the saturated colours and effects are guaranteed.
Built using household supplies like floppy disks and plastic food containers, Peekfreak’s cameras are hilariously fun and brilliantly pared down, with no knobs or buttons to press. Wait until you see how bare bones the insides are:
The creator of this tiny camera made two mistakes. One: it’s styled like a Lomography Fisheye camera, but can’t shoot fisheye photos. Two: they’re not for sale yet. I demand 10.
We’ve seen all manner of SLR trickery in the past, but Bhautik Josh has cobbled together a fisheye camera from a soft-drink can. Sounds totally MacGyver, but he’s put the steps up on his blog for you to try out.
Not only does it look retro-brilliant, but this Holga 120 lomo-cam can shoot 3D photos, thanks to the dual lenses. Each lens takes a photo, which are printed side-by-side and create a 3D effect when used with a slide viewer.
Lomo cameras (back in the day) were popular as they were cheap as chips and almost disposable, made from just flimsy plastic. Now, they’re coated in 24-carat gold and in limited-edition runs of 130 pieces.
