Lomography Fisheye

Decíamos el otro día que la destecnologización es tendencia. Bueno, venía a cuento de la nueva cámara que me trajeron los Reyes, el ojo de pez de Lomography... que en breve estará también disponible en Gnomo.

' ' Manufactured from 2005 to present in China for the Lomographic Society International of Vienna, Austria. An inexpensive “plastic” camera—as all “lomo” cult cameras are!—that sports a 170 degree field of view fisheye lens and uses 35mm film. This example purchased in the US through the George Eastman House (http://www.eastmanhouse.org) during an exhibit of lomo photography.

Presentation is everything! This camera comes it an almost cube box that when opened reveals the camera under it’s own plastic dome and a sample fisheye shot of a cat staring back at you from the top. It includes instructions that begin “Get Close! We dare you to get within 10cm (4”) or less and shoot!” and a booklet of sample fisheye images entitled “The Fisheye View”. The tag line on the side of the box describes the booklet as “The way goldfish and Lomographers see and live life!” Another tag line says “Feel like a goldfish swimming around the globe – capturing everydays life!” (Yes—they spelled it “everydays”.)
