Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Lomography Fisheye 35mm Camera
Customer Review: Vibrant and Fun
Summary: 4 Stars
I've had this camera for about a year now, having forgotten to review it when I first received it, and I love it. The colors are surprisingly vibrant, more so than I had expected, and the camera has a nice feel to it. Because this is a fisheye camera, I find that I've stopped using the viewfinder. I just point the camera at my intended subject and shoot. Part of the fun is in not know exactly how your picture will turn out, and usually it turns out great.
This camera works best in bright, natural lighting. I used it while flying kites with friends and loved the results. Inside, the pictures tend to turn out dark without the flash, or white washed with the flash, as the flash tends to be too strong.
This camera isn't perfect, which it the point. You have to expect and embrace the imperfections, otherwise this camera will drive you crazy. But for those looking for something fun and different, I fully recommend the Lomo Fisheye.
Customer Review: absolutely fascinating

Being a long time photo nut, for the holidays, my wife bought me the fish eye, in gold no less.
I shot Fujicolor 400, took pictures of my car from all kinds of crazy angles, streets, people, all were shot with the awarness that the viewfinder just was an aid.
Took the the film into a one hour developer, with the following instructions, no prints, just do the negatives and put them on a cd, he did that,got them home and viewed them.
They were wonderful, did a little work on them with Picasa 2 and converted some to black and white, it seems like artwork.
Today in Queens NY, Floyd Bennet Naval Air Station, the Concord was taken off the deck of the Intrepid and is now on view to the Public, am taking the Lomo with me, should be fascinating.
My only negative about the Fisheye is that the film advance is a bit raggedy, but really works fine.
I love this camera
Customer Review: Quirky Litte Camera
Summary: 4 Stars
I was worried about getting this camera based on the reviews that I saw on amazon and when I finally got it, but boy was I wrong. While the Camera looks really cheap for the money you paid for it, it takes some awesomme and weird pictures. I took pictures both outside and inside on a cloudy Chicago day and out of 26, 22 came out perfect, 2 came out dark, and 2 did not come out well. Thats still pretty good since the entire fun of this camera is not knowing what will come out. I think it is a really great little item and, if you like taking some pictures, grab 400 speed 35mm film, the camera, and start shooting. The only downside is you need to manually wind the film in and out of the camera. Has a nice old time feel!Customer Review: Let's hear it for easy fun and creativity

This adorable lightweight camera is perfect for people who want a unique look to their photos but don't have the money to invest in fancy camera bodies and wide-angle lenses. The fisheye camera is as easy to use as any point-and-click, and it's fixed-focus lens means no zooming, focusing, or other photographic buzz-killers. What you see is what you get, wrapped into a gently bended shape with vignetted corners. The only consideration is that you must photograph well-lit subjects or shoot outside, as there is no aperature or shutter speed control-but it's a lot of fun!! Try to recreate all your favorite band photos from the '90s by shooting on high-speed black and white film.Customer Review: Fisheye <3
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this camera to work with distorted effects in photography. When looking through the lens one does not see the fisheye effect, it occurs on the negative. The first few rolls I shot were in black and white film(kodak 400 b/w processing) and I was not satisfied. However, I began to shoot in color film (kodak 400) and the photos are absolutely beautiful. The lens has a depth of 170 degrees so aim up more when shooting vertical as to not include yourself in the image by accident. Also,beware of photo technicians, many of my photos were crop incorrectly. Overall, it is a lovely camera and I definately suggest it.
