Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Lomography Fisheye 35mm Camera
Customer Review: Fun little camera, produces great results in the right conditions!
Summary: 4 Stars
This camera is fun to play with, and produces interesting results when the conditions are right. I find the viewfinder useless, so I just aim the camera on instinct, knowing that it's fisheye will capture what I want, particularly if I'm close to the subject. If I'm shooting in marginal conditions, I will turn on the flash, let it charge up, then turn it off, take the picture with the flash, then take a second one with the flash off. I would never consider it a replacement for a SLR or other high quality camera, but it definetly has it's place in my camera bag. Overall, a nice little camera to play with.Customer Review: This camera has PLASTIC lens but not Optical GLASS!
Summary: 2 Stars
Out of curiosity I bought one of this camera which said that it has a 170 degree Optical-Glass Lens but it actually has a PLASTIC lens. I hope someone from Amazon will change the Technical Detail and Specification of the AD. This lens can be easily scratched so be very careful. In fact mine camera came with a clear scratch on the side of the front element. I felt that a $40 for this plastic camera is a bit expensive. The only big merit to this toy is its 170 degree lens and the kind of images you can take will cost you a few hundreds dollar more usually for a real optical Glass lens.Customer Review: It's a fun little camera, but overpriced...
Summary: 3 Stars
A pleasant little camera that takes good (for a toy camera) quality fisheye shots. The image circle is smaller than a 35mm frame, so be prepared for images that look like they were taken through a toilet paper roll. You'll see the inside of the lens barrel. The build quality is just a hair above a disposable camera, dressed up with some faux leather. It's certainly a good alternative to going out and buying a "real" fisheye lens just to screw around, but as you would expect from the Lomographic Society - it's about twice as expensive as it should be.Customer Review: It's about fun.
Summary: 5 Stars
Cheap little camera with a pretty good glass lens. Produces suprisingly sharp and striking photos. Fixed focus and shutter / aperture, and the lens barrel partly blocks the flash, so use fast film - 400 or 800 speed - and shoot in well-lit rooms or daylight. I spent the last week sticking it in peoples faces, and the prints made us laugh. If you're expecting a Nikon, you'll be disappointed - so, Don't Expect a Nikon! Expect a fun little camera with a lot of laughs for the buck. 5 stars because it does all it tries to do.Customer Review: Best Forty Bucks You'll Ever Spend On A Camera
Summary: 5 Stars
They have fancier models but this cheapo plastic junk with no frills is the most fun for the money. Many of us have all the super equipment with every bell and whistle known to man, so having zero control and no frills is way freeing.
Winding and rewinding the film with those little plastic wheels is sooooo retro! (i confess that i had my hr developer scan the film even though i have a Nikon coolscal IV) Can't wait to shoot s'more with this gem!!!
Just fun.
