Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Lomography Colorsplash 35MM Camera
Customer Review: take the colorsplash with a pinch of salt.
Summary: 2 Stars
Not related to the performance of the camera - mine arrived missing the lid - and it looked like it had previously been opened - however I bought it "new" of amazon. I was nonetheless excited and it looked like nothing (minus the lid) was missing so I set it up and got to shooting.
I can't say if the film was tricky or not to load. Reason being is that I don't have much experience loading film so I can't make an accurate comparison.
Pros: The three rolls I churned out right away came out really neat and fun. So it accomplishes what it claims, it takes good photos, I can't deny that.
Cons: The colorwheel design. In my opinion it was as though the designers spent most of their design time and budget on the wheel idea and then rushed through everything else, resulting in a bad overall design. What the websites related to the colorsplash sheepishly WONT tell you is that not only do you NOT have 4 slots with which to load color gels, you only have two, with the two others permanent (a blue and yellow). Right away I felt like the online descriptions were very misleading regarding this and it is extremely limiting. It would be one thing if the gels were easily interchanged but they are not, requiring tweezers or some equivalent (not included, but reccomended in the manual), not feasible if you are out, especially at night. Plus if you wanted to have a default unfiltered flash, it means you would only get one color option in addition to the default blue and yellow - not that great in my opinion. I think that as camera that is billed as a simple camera with its main selling point being an outstanding flash device it fails horribly. If you don't really require the variety that the colorsplash falsely advertises, you should be fine.
In addition to that, my camera broke withing the first 24 hours. The plastic part of the camera that the strap is connected to broke off, very easilly, considering I barely had the camera - but that could have been a unique defect, or maybe missing the lid it moved around in shipping cracking that part of the plastic - I will probably never know. Although the mechanism was unaffected (as far as I knew) I wasn't comfortable with any part of it breaking off in under 24 hours and returned the camera.
