I think my golden half is broken T_T just kidding, I know it's broken.

I'm going to the Philippines next week for a volunteer trip and I want to take a film camera. I'm so tempted to either buy a new golden half or buy a wide and slim. (I'm currently in Hong Kong).

Too... many... toy... cameras...

Hi everyone,
I'm a beginner aka a total noob. I was thinking of getting a Lomo LC-A+ but then I come here and people are recommending a Holga.
I know that a basic Holga starter kit could probably go for $70ish..and LC-A+ is $250.
Does anyone know the diff in quality and blah? Care to explain?

I would prefer 350mm film for my convenience and also for the sake of my wallet but...ARGHHH I DONTKNOW!
Suggestions?

d0ts will do ! i went out today but no luck finding the lomo slide at UO.. only redscale, 120 B&W, color negative & color.. i will go back in 2 days to see if they restock or if they even carry it..

anyone ever shot with lomo color negative 400 ? how is it ?

i'm sure it's pretty normal. i stupidly bought 3 packs of lomo colour negative 100...
my oktomat has no flash...so i have to use it in really bright settings.
^for the lomo color negative 100...it looks a little washed out.
not sure if its the same for 400 speed.

i desperately want slide film.

but 35mm slide is online only :[
link!

anyways..

has anyone bought/tried the holga instant back? or the holga 3d mounting frame?? <-from uo

how about the Ion Slide to PC converter
^link
i am so tempted to buy this...so i can just pay like 4$ to develop the negatives...or develop the b&w myself instead of paying flipping 10-12$ a roll for 4 x 6 prints and scan them individually and cropping them on my crappy scanner.

and instead just scan these babies so quickly...
i wish they had this for 120 as well TT ^ TT

or should i get a Canon CanoScan 8800F Color Film/Negative/Photo Scanner. It's an extra 100$ and you can scan 120 and 110...you just need a mask thingy?

help TT ^ TT

I havn't used the holga before but what from what I've seen it seems like a really great camera. However I definitely would recommend the lc-a. If you look on ebay, you can find better deals for Lomo cameras (the original ones too!). I bought mine for 150ish on ebay. I think maybe the only real downside of the Holga is the somewhat inconvenience of 120 film, and I think you may have to go to actual photo hobby places to get them developed? Both however create beautiful dreamy images so I think it really just depends on your own preference.

@breathless. - Beautiful shots ! I went to Urban Outfitters the other day, and I saw Goldenhalfs on sale for 30 bucks!

@d0ts: Ohhh, those shots makes me want to get a action sampler now T_T Why must I have such an expensive hobby?

Anyone interested purchasing a pretty much new (only brought out once taken half a roll of film with it) Diana+ ? Comes with 9 rolls of black&white 120 film (1 roll is already loaded on camera but unused), a diana photobook, and comes in the original packaging/box. Im letting it go for $60 SHIPPED USD total. (im whitelisted on soompi selling thread as well)

I just bought this camera a couple weeks ago and was pretty excited when it arrived but i dont quite like using 120 film and getting them processed is extremely difficult because there arent any actual photolabs nearby. I should've considered this before i bought the camera but anyway, im selling my diana so i can get a 35mm lomocam

PM me if anyone is interested.

strawberry.llamas: hey! have you gotten the ion slide to pc convertor? i heard there's bad reviews regarding it [though idk what comments they are], but there are also positive feedback too. so... i don't know. but i was thinking that the canoscan sounds like a great product. lots of raving comments about it over at another lomo forum that i frequent and i have been checking up on it since i kinda want one too. haha. it scans almost everything i believe, even those photos with sprockets. just have to do a little adjustments ourselves. the downside to it is that the for sprockets, one must use scotchtape or just get non-reflective glass to press upon it and make some manual adjustments to the exposure settings etc. and it can be pretty time consuming too. oh there's also a canoscan 8800F pool group on flickr.

haha can you send me a link of the canoscan thread from the other lomo forum?

i would be great to read some real reviews

eh it may be time consuming...but it'll be so much cheaper. With my crappy scanner/printer i have to manually upload ONE picture at a time!! The horror! Plus it had horrrible quality! :[

plus i have a feeling that the canoscan will pay it self off... Cuz it's like $12 to develop color negative and to get 24 4"x6" prints :[
if it was black and white i can do it myself at school

do you know how many megapixels the canoscan has? Cuz i heard the ion to pc converter was like 5 megapixels...

i'm not sure if that's pretty good or what ><

gah must save up for SCANNER AND FILM/CAMERA!

this hobby makes my wallet feel so light.... TT ^ TT
