Sometimes I completely missed my subject, but those pictures often turned out to be among the most interesting that I took.I stopped worrying, and I just had fun. It is, by all conventional standards, a very crappy camera. That's the most important thing to consider if you're thinking about purchasing this camera: it's just plain fun to use.If you know anything about lomography, you know that you shouldn't expect crystal clear, perfectly sharp pictures from a product like this. I never had to worry about changing batteries or getting things in focus or aperture settings or shutter speeds. Mine seems to have only one of its four lenses in anything close to good focus, it's hard as heck to load the film, and the images it produces look a little more like paintings than actual photographs.But that's pretty much what I expected -- and wanted -- when I bought it. With its rather useless "viewfinder," I quickly learned to just let go, aim roughly, and shoot. I just took pictures.I'd recommend it to anyone.One final note, though: The product description states (as of writing) that the camera comes with two rolls of film. Mine however, only came with one.
outdoor pictures come out really good. not really for indoor use, even if you do have good lighting. you just have to be careful when you take it to the beach and trying not to touch the lens.
Now I use it when ever i'm out and about. This camera is fun but remember.it's basically a toy. I bought it for snowboarding trips buy I don't know if it would function too well after the inevitable falls. Mostly park activities, kids, pets, subway trains and street scenes.Experiment with manual zoom (your arm) and with different film speeds. Fun is what matters.
Scanner is the Canon mfr. Mine included free 800 asa film. The price is high. Hope to save on the cost and then have my scanner that can scan in negatives to the computer. I have also heard of a Fuji 1x use 8 lens camera for golfing swing analysis. Wish it was cheaper.
(is a USB connector). Did not read that in the descrition. CanoScan D660u. It is like a 35mm automatic camera without the batteries and a flash. I plan to have negatives only developed. I believe it is avail here at Amazon.com.
I wonder if it is cheaper.
One should experiment with film with high ASA numbers. This camera can produce some nice movement shots. I bought a CyberSampler 2.0 Chrome camera this spring and shot a few films. This is, of course, a novelty camera, and be prepared to "waste" film. I recommend children, pets etc. You should get up close and remember to keep the camera still for the whole shot process. The physical make (case, etc). of the camera is very cheap and plastic indeed, but mine works as it should.
