Guest itislorraine Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 does anyone know what lomography camera to start off with? Lol. I looked through urban outfitter and searched "holga", but i don't know which camera to choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Justalilodreamer Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 ^ ^ omg those are AMAZING! :o i love the light leaks, they look so dreamy *_* what camera did you use? itislorraine- personally, i'd start off with the regular 'Colorflash Holga' which is the most basic one... or if you like using 35mm film more, try the Holga 35mm.

Guest d0ts Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 choko! your shots are incredible! really really nice, i love the first one especially. and all the light leaks are really lovely! haha. oh i went to your flickr account, and you used fujichrome T64 tungsten film? i heard of tungsten film before, but i'm wondering what's the difference between tungsten film and the normal slides/negatives?

Guest breathless. Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 ^ Tungsten film just means it's balanced for Tungsten light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest leeahh Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 yeah breathless. pretty much summed it up haha and also the 64 stands for iso 64 so it's best to use it when the sun is bright =] it was a really sunny day so I got lucky haha oh and I used my Diana F+ then cross-processed =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest d0ts Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 ohhh... so tungsten film is basically like slides? so we just have to cross process it as per normal? your photos are really nice... love the sun rays too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest app0e.juiice Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 for a beginner which camera would you recommend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eyepatch Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 for a beginner which camera would you recommend? I'm positive that people have posted questions similar to this. That's why I think there should be a FAQ on the front page or something. Pretty much all of the cameras work the same way but will give you slightly different results. There will be people who will say that you'll get better results with Diana vs a Holga and vice versa. I'd personally say that the only "better" camera out of all of them is the LC-A, but it's expensive and I've seen people get equally nice results with a Holga. Just get a 35mm Holga because the film is cheap and the camera is cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest miiloverx2 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 yeah breathless. pretty much summed it up haha and also the 64 stands for iso 64 so it's best to use it when the sun is bright =] it was a really sunny day so I got lucky haha oh and I used my Diana F+ then cross-processed =] Your pictures are really really nice! Love them! Wish someone would go do a camera walk with me here in Hong Kong SO BORED. oh funny story.. So every time I go develop my Velvia/Provia, the old couple at the nearby Kodak photolab always finds an excuse to yell at me so that I would use Elitechrome instead of Velvia or Provia etc.. hahaha .. I just tell them to shut it.. (in a nicer way of course lol). They are too cute for words.. I'm thinking of buying the White Slim Angel.. but I really don't know if its worth it since I have so many cameras already -.- but I just can't resist the adorable look of the camera!

Guest d0ts Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 yeah, some questions like those recommendations of cameras are constantly being asked. but how do we make it more organised? oh well. anw, i developed my slides yesterday! camera used was diana F+ and film used was the EPP. my roll was kinda destroyed. only 7 out of 12 came out, and i guess it was because i accidentally opened the cover by mistake. i thought the roll was fully finished and that the roll has already been advanced fully to the take-up spool. so i was wrong, and there goes some of shots. T.T and the remaining 7 shots, mostly were underexposed, though i have no idea why when i was at the beach and it was a bright sunny scorching hot day.

Guest leeahh Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 d0ts those are just reeeaaaallyyy sexy shots haha! woww love the colour tones! what's your flickr btw? =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eyepatch Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 Oh man, lately there's been so many good photographs from everyone. More people should try to post up their shots! Anyways, here are the best pictures from the first roll I've taken with my Holga. The rest are reallyyyy bad compared to these (lol I know you're probably wondering how that's even possible considering the following suck badly enough). I'd post my newer pictures but my scanner is currently dead :' ( I still need to develop one roll, but ughh...no money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest d0ts Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 choko6610: thanks! oh, i set my photos to become private on flickr, so i think you might not be able to see them. you wanna look at the other photos? they aren't really nice actually, for the rest. there's one that might "scare" you. LOL. but i did add the pics onto facebook, so... http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=8658...mp;l=bf76e4d9d4 please pardon me for the ugly shots. eyepatch: haha, yeah everyone should try and upload their pics too! would really love to see them... and your photos are not bad imo. i kinda like the first one. haha and you managed to take a picture of them without them knowing?!?! i like the blurred out effect of it too... was it on bulb mode or out of focused? and hmm, you can probably try taking photos when it's really bright and sunny... the pics will look even nicer!

BBF is way too expensive Velvia/Sensia (depending on the ISO) tend to have bigger colour shifts (to the reds) than Elitechrome.. so unless you want all your shots to turn out red.. then Elitechrome would probably be better (or maybe it's just that I like the cyan tints more?) : P you can check the chart out to see the difference @ post #343 I'm in Hong Kong ! (: AGH!!!!! a comrade! HAHA a shot i took in macau a while ago and also.. another giant is here!! this time in Taiwan!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
