I read something coool in magazine and I Google it in order to know it more detail
Guess what? It’s lomography?
According to Wikipedia,
Lomography is the commercial trademark of Lomographische AG, Austria for products and services related to photography. The name is inspired by the former state-run optics manufacturer LOMO PLC of Saint Petersburg, Russia. LOMO PLC created and produced the 35mm LOMO LC-A Compact Automatcamera— which became the centrepiece of Lomography’s marketing and sales activities. This camera was loosely based upon the Cosina CX-1 and introduced in the early 1980s.
In 1991, the Austrian founders of Lomography discovered the Lomo LC-A. As the company states, they were “charmed by the unique, colourful, and sometimes blurry” images that the camera produced. After a series of international art exhibitions and aggressive marketing work, Lomography signed an exclusive distribution agreement with LOMO PLC — thereby becoming the sole distributor of all Lomo LC-A cameras outside of the Soviet Union.
Lomography emphasizes casual, snapshot photography. Characteristics such as over-saturated colours, off-kilter exposure, blurring, “happy accidents,” and alternative film processing are often considered part of the “Lomographic Technique. Users are encouraged to take a light-hearted approach to their photography, and use these techniques to document everyday life, as the Lomo LC-A’s small size, simple controls, and ability to shoot in low light encourages candid photography, photo reportage, and photo vérité through the much-touted “10 Golden Rules”
The lomo camera is so cute and adorable.
The most important thing is it is much much cheaper that DSLR.
Just about RM 200++ or RM 500++you can have a cute and adorable camera (Some of them are key-chains as well: D).
The pictures taken by these lomo cameras are superb too.
Do you believe all these without editing with Photoshop??
have a look of lomo cameras and the pictures taken by them, you will definitely impressed. <3
