Going old school with pictures.

Yay! I got my Ultra Wide & Slim film camera and I’m super excited to use it.

But I think I’ll wait for our vacation ; )

When it comes to images, I do love vignettes & oversaturation 🙂

Next on my camera-to-buy list – Holga or Diana.

Toy Cameras.

I am in love with Lomos. Unfortunately, my wallet is not. So, I am always on the lookout for cheaper but still great alternatives.

Gakken Flex 35mm TLR

35mm film Twin Reflex Camera.
Fixed shutter speed : 1/150 sec
Fixed aperture : F11

My brother already has this. He just got his so I’m not sure how he’s finding it. I would love this, but it requires assembly so I found this:

Superheadz Blackbird Fly

ens: f7 33mm/ photo lens
shutter speed: 1/125
aperture: f7 (cloudy) f11 (fine weather)
focus: visual distance estimated measurement
(0.8/1.5/2/2.5/3/4/5/10/infinite)

film type: 135 (35mm) film
camera type: 35mm twin-lens reflex camera.

It comes in a lot of different colors. You can check it out here: Superheadz

At the moment though, I really want a wide-angle lens toycam. I am eyeing the Superheadz Wide Angle Series Cam

Superheadz Wide Lens Camera Series

– shoots standard 35mm film
– shoot dynamic, wide pictures with 22m wide angle lens
– surprisingly vivid colors
– vignetting effect

and the Eximus Ultra Wide & Slim Camera

Eximus Ultra Wide and Slim Camera

I am hoping I get to save for this before I go on vacation. Wish me luck! 🙂
