OH GOD I MUST BUY THIS! O_O it has focusing!!! *drools* haha

EDIT: going to see if a friend on another forum can import the DIY TLR camera for me, fingers crossed!! if it goes well I'll ask if she can get a few more

[yummy.pockey]

BTW: POLAROID CAMERAS ARE COMING OUT IN HONG KONG HOPEFULLY CHRISTMAS TIME!
THEY'LL BE EVERYWHERE IN THE ELECTRONIC STORES!! i can't wait!!

ughh i need to get myself a flickr pro account .............. sigh

The pictures you took with your camera keychain are very very nice! <3
POLAROIDS in HK! wow, so fast!
I checked on Internet, a french website said they want to product 1 million of films in 2010, and then 3 millions in 2011 and 10 millions the following years... o_o
and apparently, it will cost ~17� = ~25 USD... it's not sure sure (it came from one website only), but I think that's expensive D': (compared to 45HKD (~ 6USD) instax films haha..)

800??? danggggg I was in Hong Kong over the summer and found a store in North Point that sold film for 45HKD and the cameras for 360HKD (Instax 7s). (Which was a miracle hahaha everytime I went back I was paranoid that the film prices would be raised). If anyone is interested it's easy to get to. Get off at North Point, go up the escalators (NOT through the mural walkway) and when you get out of the exit it's to your right.

I really miss that about Hong Kong, there were film developing places EVERYWHERE.

Thank you very much for the indications to get a cheap Instax! I will try to go there the first day!
Developing places everywhere ? wanna try lomography haha~ do you know the price of the white slim angel camera btw?

[breathless.]

^ $240 HKD. I bought my black slim devil on whim at a log on lol <3

[cerys]

^ First off, I love your film set. Alot of great shots. I favorited my favorites !

I think my sister and I have bought like 50 packs from there haha.

If you go to Log On, there are definitely more expensive. They sell for cheaper at the fuji/kodak developing places. Although, the all choco/white ones are hundreds more everywhere.

I gave in. I sent money to Paypal T_T I'm getting it for $40 from this guy off flickr :x I'M SO EXCITED.

Wow, that's really cheap! Thanks for the notice - I might actually get one when I go to Hong Kong =D!!

Did you get the actual camera from the shop you're talking about or just the film? I've never been to HK before and I can't speak Cantonese so I'm really paranoid about going to the smaller stores to buy electronics!

I think I might be staying at Tsim Sha Tsui and I'm not sure how I'll be able to get to North Point though (since my mum and relatives would just be as clueless when we go and we don't really know the contacts of our relatives in HK). Would there be a place in TST that sells Fujifilm Instax for a good price O:?

edit: thanks for the reply (:

[iyagi]

Oh my goodness I love lomography lol (: ♥

I've been thinking about getting one of the cameras from the site, since I'd seen them around alot and they're not that pricey (at least not the smaller ones). They produce such beautiful pictures ; __;

Just the film.

Well, I don't speak Cantonese either, I'm Korean LOL.

I got along great in HK though. The transportation systems there are really easy to take ~

If you want to get to North Point, just take the MTR. If not, I think there are cheap places that sell film in Mong Kok, which is what, 2 stops away from TST? Someone who is still there can probably tell you more about it haha.

[agnes.]

wow the instax is really cheap at hk.
i was planning on just buying them there but we're going there next year august. such a long time from now. T_T
so i guess i'll just buy from here and pay the higher price ><
and maybe when we get there i'll buy more film hehe.

[d0ts]

Uverstar : THAT LOOKS SO COOL! haha. i somehow see a buterfly's shape in that photo. lol. but it's really nice... love the colour tones! how did you do that anyway? was it overexposed or something?

[Uverstar]

haha Dots: yeah it's definately over exposed, I shot against the sun knowing something freaky would happen if i get it developed and well..here it is XD

[yummy.pockey]

^ $240 HKD. I bought my black slim devil on whim at a log on lol <3

Okay thank you ♥

Just the film.

You didn't say that they sell the camera for 360HKD? o_o *confused*

[vivientww]

Wow. It's been 2 months since I promised to come back with my bbf photos! >_<
I'll scan them soon.

@ Uverstar That's a pretty overexposed picture!

[breathless.]

That's why I answered just the film, lol.

I bought my instax in Korea for a lot more expensive T_T I saw the instax that cheap in the store where I buy my film.

[kiwiaddict]

about develop pictures, can i go to the typical photo developing centers that develop dslr/disposable photos? if so, about how much (more expensive)? ...for example Walmart... would they develop these? Thanks

[breathless.]

^ usually yes. The wal-mart/CVS in my area doesn't develop film anymore, but there are still some drugstores that do it. It's not too expensive.. I went to a Walgreens the other day and it was $9 to develop three rolls.. but thats just develop i didn't get prints or scans.

Test shots with the vq1015. I'm still trying to figure it out--took forever to figure out where the battery went haha so far I'm liking the results.




I thought I had taken 18 shots, but only 2 came out ? I think the battery is low.

[wiwi_an]

$9 to develop three rolls!??! tats cheap! mine is $5 each the 120mm film.


is there anyway to photoshop negative film and turn it into the true colors?
and wut is the name of film that when its processed, it shows the actual colors?

[kiwiaddict]

thanks breathless!

i'm really really wanna get one soon...

but but for diana + and diana + f, is the diff is that f has flash? and is the flash really a lot better? its only cause of my budget problem that i'm considering the one without but but would you guys recommend i get it with the flash?

[breathless.]

? Invert, maybe? I've never had to try--usually when you scan in photos, the scanner will do it for you.

Positive film will show the 'true' pictures (aka slide film).

Yeah the f+ has flash capabilities. Well, if you're going to take pictures indoors/at night, than sure, but if you're daytime shooter, than you don't NEED one.

Honestly, I wish I had gotten the Holga before the Diana. It might not be as pretty, but it's alot cheaper and can come 1. in a variety of colors 2. in 35mm format 3. with/without built in flash.

[kiwiaddict]

Andddd: is one of those instand developer-attaching things better than going to the developer? Both money-wise and quality/artisticness-wise...

EDIT: uhhh I stalked ebay and bought one =S
LOL these are too cool. cant wait

[wiwi_an]

thanks breathless.!

holgas are around 40 WITH flash
nvr tried the flash on my holga yet. maybe later on. but yea the holgas on ebay come it a lot of colors. mine's red and white ^^
