For The Lovers Of Lomography

[Guest breathless.]

^ btw, i know what you mean by the finger in the way. I had a cute ribbon charm on my black slim devil & it showed in a couple of my shots T_T so frustrating! Now I always compensate when I look through the viewfinder, since it is so wide, I make sure there is nothing to the sides that I don't want in the picture, etc. I'm paranoid.

FAIL from my philippines trip; *cries in a corner

[Guest Uverstar]

ah~ awesometastic photos jho!! love the second photo featuring the Ferris Wheel and the clouds~ [i'm a cloud watcher] XD

that reminds me...I need to visit the theme park and take some photos....and get two of my rolls developed..but I think half of my black and white photos won't show up because i was supposed to process it as soon as it finished..ah crap XD I got some nice photos on it as well T_T

[Guest blush]

And thanks for the locations and store names. I'm gonna go check that out tomorrow or something. And wow $360? YEAH, so going to check that out haha. Thanks so much~

@jho Nice set of pictures! I liked the sun flares in some of them. Idk, haha, I'm a sucker for flares

Ohh~ And I hope you don't mind, I added you as a contact on flickr. ^^;

And haha, thanks for the tip. I'll be sure to try to haggle it down to 42 LOL. Or.. or.. maybe even 40.

[Guest d0ts]

i think 40 will be really hard (trust me, i've tried ><)... even for 42, sometimes they give you a look and yell at you ahahaha. but good luck tho!! <3

OMG! I scored jackpot the other day! not really lol but I managed to get my hands on some expired film.. 18 rolls of em x] nahaha there was this shop selling a 3pack of Kodak 200Gold 35mm film! for $3 each! soo I bought 6 packs of em. so that's basically $1 per roll. WOOT

my friend told me about the shop and I rushed there as soon as I could. lucky for me there were still 7 packs left. I decided to leave 1 just in case someone comes along too I don't want to be greedy.

hahaha they're only 2 months expired but still! i'm gonna have sooo much fun nehehe hopefully I'll get my hands on a 35mm lomo cam sometime soon so I can share pics here :] but for now I'm gonna test em with my SLR =]

hahaha everyone loves expired film~~~~ argh you beat me!! T_T I was in this store and I found fuji film that were 4 packs and only sold for $5 XD~~ but no expired film T_T i have to wait till next year January for it to expire T_T

[Guest dori dori]

ok...i'm confused i tried to read the past posts but i'm so lazi XD sorry lol

so I want to buy one and i think i'm gonna start off with the Holga instead of the Diana. If it says 35mm film does that mean it can just use regular 35mm films i buy from the store??

[Guest Justalilodreamer]

^ yeah you can just use any 35mm film from stores

omgah why are the diana 35mm back SO expensive?? i might as well by a new 35mm camera with that money. anyone own a holga 35mm? how is it ?

[Guest ashleyx]

my holga 135bc just came in the mail with a roll of film i am SO excited

AHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh ya and where do you guys get your film developed??

[Guest blush]

Jw, does expired polaroid Fujifilm film give a lomography effect? Or does it just look like crap? Haha. I've never really seen/used expired polaroid film.

[Guest breathless.]

My friend bought a bag full of expired 1200 polaroid film. The colors were wonky (VERY yellow) and faded, but hey, she got the 120 shots for $5.

http://www.flickr.com/groups/polaroid-expired/ <- c-c-check it out, I love flickr groups

EVERYTHING for the Diana is mad expensive... the lenses are more $$ than the actual camera I feel ! I haven't used my Diana in forever, I'm thinking of selling it...

& I usually get my film developed & scanned at school. It's trustworthy (I go to a photo school) & very good quality. Expensive though? It's $5 to process and a couple more bucks for scanning I think. I'm just too lazyyyyyy to scan myself.

I currently have 7 rolls of 35mm I have to develop... but I'm poor. I don't know if I should wait to get them developed at school or just get them done in Hong Kong.

[Guest Uverstar]

I'm hoping to find myself a popart lomo camera, they're so hard to find T_T haha

but yeah honestly I'm abit of a pickle..I might have to sell my Superheadz Blackbird fly T_T..no money at the moment

sigh lomo camera's are the death of my wallet XD

[Guest leeahh]

There's a "new" lomo camera in town~!

Diana Mini? haha check it out here you guys http://nicnichols.com/FourCornersDark/?p=3869

but I unnoo it could or could not give the Golden Half a run for its money.. personally I want it coz it can shoot both half frame and square.. hrmm I wish though that they made a totally different design

[Guest wiwi_an]

(omg the diana mini looks so cute....but i rather.->.) does anyone know where i can get a superheadz golden half?? i've been wanting one for a long time T.T

and i wanna ask where you lomocamers get your cameras?

[Guest strawberry.llamas]

and i got my oktomat from a soompier ^^

[Guest miiloverx2]

w00t i haven't been here in a while!

i can FEEL the passion for lomo guys..

so i just came back from a few trips.. i need to remind myself to buy more EB3!! (Elitechrome 100) .. it's been a long time since i used one.. and i almost forgot how awesome it was with lomo cameras ahh

thenn here is from my recent trip to Hokkaido!!!! (SO MUCH FUN!)

a while back.. the lomo store was hiring.. and i almost had a heart attack LOL

i really want to work there : ( but too bad it was mid august already..

Breathless: what you said about Diana and it's add-ons being expensive. YOU HAVE SPOKEN MY MIND.

AGH.. and i haven't used my Diana Instax either... pah

[Guest breathless.]

^ gorgeous shots, I love the rest in the set too. I love film.

You were in Hong Kong? I've been in Hong Kong for about two months now, I'm leaving next Monday. AH MACAU, I went there two weeks ago and took like three rolls. I still need to get them processed... but I'm too poor.

At my internship, there is this drawer full (literally) with expired 120 film. It calls out to me T_T; My photographers haven't touched the stuff in like three years! SIGH

[Guest Uverstar]

It's asking you to take it home with you!! XD

[Guest jho]

Helooo, I have a question about expired film ^^

I went to the local photo shop yesterday to buy new 35mm film, but the lady sold me expired film from 2007 >_>

I know (instant) expired film has some cool effects, but what about regular film? Should I return it or just experiment with it? :3
