The Lomo LC-A+ experience

I went out and got my Lomo LC-A+ recently and immediately started shooting using the Fuji Film (ISO100) that came with the camera pack. The Lomo LC-A+ is known for its vibrant saturation of colours, the sometimes-funny focusing and the vignetting at the corners.

Among the lomo/holga/"toy cameras" that are so hype today, the LC-A+ is not the cheapest, but I have read good reviews about this camera, so I thought I would give it a try since I have been wanting to experiment taking pictures with them.

As you can see in some of my photos here, I still have a lot to learn about using the zone focus spec in this camera. But still, it was a fun experience, just shooting and trying to find as much colours as possible (I wanted to see the colour saturation).

Out of the 36 possible pictures, only a few turned out sharp and in focus. The rest were blurred, some awfully but for some, the blurriness seemed to enhance the pictures even more. I let you be the judge of that:







So, I will keep on trying till I understand how this little camera works (it looked deceptively bigger on the computer screen) and I will post the results as I shoot.
