Lomo or Leningradskoye Optiko-Mechanichesckoye Obyedinenie (from Wiki). Lomography is a different world of picture shoting. Lomo is a fashion instead of clearness and sharpness. That’s what make Lomo so attractive to people and that is why I am starting a blog with Lomo. There is a book so called “We Love Lomo” from taiwan which is a very beginner’s book to have before adding cams on your cart.
Recently bought a lomographic camera at lomographyasia.com on 17th July. It’s a pretty cool site. Obviously that is for asia, there is also a site called lomography.com which is also good for international. They provided me a good service because a day after I paid the bill, the package arrived. Why not take a look if you are interested.
So I bought a cheaper cam comparing to the famous lomo LC-A+, which is Fisheye No.2. Nothing is so special about fisheye lens, but a very wide (170 degree) angle and hemispherical image.
First attempt, 36 pcs 35mm film was shoted with the fisheye no.2. Fortunately 17 pcs out of 36 pcs are fine and the rest are blank shot which there is some people get 0 pcs from the 36 pcs. However 11 pcs out of 17 pcs are fine focus pictures and others are totally screwed.
