LC-A Tunnel Vision Lens on iPhone 5

I didn't test the Tunnel Vision Lens on my LC-A+ RL, because it will take me some time to develop the film to show you the effect and result. So I tried it with my iPhone 5. I just attached on it. Let's go.

Captured with lens

Captured without lens

So you can see, when it attached with the lens, it become wide angle. Only sharp in the middle and blur on the corner. Maybe it will be more obvious when try on full frame camera. The lens is about 0.45x, that's mean if attached on LC-A+, 32mm will become about 15mm. This is so wide, actually wider than the 20mm Wide Angle Lens.

Captured with only Macro lens

Captured without Marco lens

I want to see some Lomo effect. Let's try with Hipstamatic.

After I tested with iPhone 5, I am so excited to try on LC-A+. But maybe not macro, because the distance is too near, unbelievable near, is about 2cm. Can it be? Will I need to stick the magnetic ring on the camera? Still thinking about it. 

Received my Tunnel Vision Lens

Since Lomography online shop offer the 50% discount for LC-A accessory, then I take it. I always admire the Tunnel Vision Lens, but the price pull me off. I made a move this time to get this lens.

I don't know how was the lens, but I received a big box from the courier. When I opened it, only got a small grey bag in the big box. Put such a small thing in a BIG Box? Just wonder. No surprise from Lomography. Hehe. I thought would have something else.

Just a small grey bag in the box

The lens is so small, just same as my thumb size. 4 magnetic rings are included in the package. Nice. I thought just 2 rings, but the end get 4 rings. The lens is far more smaller and lighter if compare to the Wide angle lens (which is one of my favorite lens).

So how was the performance and effect? Stay tune.

Small and light lens

Lens with front and rear cap

Lomography Belair X6-12 Jetsetter Unbox

Happy Boxing Day!!! Are you unboxing your Christmas present?? Although I was unbox it last week, but it still fresh without film loaded into it.

The camera

So let's see what is in the box. The camera is big but light, Jetsetter is with metal body, but still light. Nothing much with the camera, just shutter, ISO selector, and that's all. Battery is not included in the package. It is just RM3.00 per battery. Maybe Lomography should included it in the package like the LC-A+, because this is just tiny money. Neck strap or hand strap is not included too. So far, this is the first camera that I had without neck strap in the package. I need to get one for it.

Camera with lens

The bellow

2 lens are included in the package, 58mm and 90mm. Both lens are plastic lens, and Lomography just launched 2 glass lens which is 135mm and 90mm. Yes, this camera package is cheap, so don't expect a prefect glass lens is included with the camera.

90mm lens

58mm lens

View finder are included. The design of view finder to attach on the camera is great, which is simple and easy. But I don't know how fit it will be, or when will it break, especially when put in the bag. The most important thing is the frame bracket, which let you choose between 6x6, 6x9, 6x12, are in the package.

Viewfinder

So everything is simple, simple manual, simple box, simple package, and how about the picture quality? Will find it out later.

My Belair X6-12 Jetsetter

I am the first batch of Pre-order. Lomography promised to deliver before 19 December. And yes, Lomography did keep their promise to deliver on 19 December.

Hurray!! Finally, a lot people got their camera. Now I got mine on 19 December!! So excited about it. Gonna unpack it soon.

ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS ANALOGUE!

Get your Christmas present!

More Picture from Belair!

Yes, first batch of Belair,

officially Sold out,

so they are getting the order for the second batch of Belair.

Before I made my order,

I don't have much information about Belair,

now there are more about the camera.

This is the light meter, auto exposure system.

Classic Bellows Design

For sure, Hot-shoes for flash.

The 90mm lens, but no 58mm lens yet.

3 shooting formats, interesting.

50-1600 ISO setting, include with the B mode.

Lomography Belair X 6-12 Globe Trotter is SOLD OUT!

When I was finally decided to take the Globe trotter with snake skin,

but unfortunately it is SOLD OUT.

With only 300 units in the world, 

super limited edition!

Honestly, I am more prefer to the all black,

which is City Slicker.

But after I read the description,

it is just plastic body.

I don't want plastic body!!

I want metal body!!!

So, all black is out of my mind.

I thought to take the snake skin which is Globe trotter,

but due to overwhelming, 

it is SOLD OUT!!

Unexpected. Too fast.

Actually I don't mind about the design,

I just want to metal body,

if the black is metal body,

I would take it.

I choose snake skin just because limited edition metal body.

But now,

I have to settle with brown skin, Jet setter.

Jet setter, I am gonna pre-order you.

With the piggies points that I have,

I only need to pay so little. 

Thanks to Lomography.

Lomgoraphy Belair X 6-12, will this my first 120 format camera?

Lomoggraphy announced Lomography Belair X 6-12 on 18 October.

Only for pre-order,

and you can get 30% discount!!

When I first look at the camera,

I thought this will be expensive,

surprisingly, it is not.

The price is cheaper than LC-A+, 

cheaper than Lubitel 166+,

I'm so surprise.

Yes, it is auto expose,

with zone focus like LC-A+,

metal body, 

Yes, it is, metal body!!!

not plastic body like LC-A+ and Lubitel 166+.

For sure, lower price,

then you can't get feature like Lubitel 166+ and LC-A+.

Maximum aperture of f/8,

it would be great if I have more aperture option to choose.

So, will this the first 120 format camera for me??

Which design do you like?

Lomography Belair X 6-12 Globe trotter

Lomography Belair X 6-12 Jetsetter

Lomography Belair X 6-12 Cityslicker

Actually I like the all black Cityslicker,

but the Globe trotter is limited edition and only 300 units.

So, which one to choose?

Nikon FE with Lensbaby Composer Pro Sweet 35

I got my Lensbaby Composer Pro with Sweet 35 sometimes ago.

This is manual focus lens, 

so to get a sharp and focused picture,

you will need some skill,

this is the problem of manual focus lens,

especially someone like me with spectacles. 

When I look thru the viewfinder,

and thought that the object is in focus,

but actually it is not, 

maybe 0.1 - 0.3m not in focus,

especially when using big aperture from f/1.4 - 4.0.

When I use DSLR last time, 

and I tried with manual focus,

I notice about this problem. 

I thought it is in focus, 

but it is not.

I don't know is it the problem with my spectacles,

or something else,

but I know it is hard to use manual focus.

I love Lensbaby,

but if Lensbaby with auto focus,

surely it will help me a lot to get the sweet spot.

Boom! Sweet spot! In focus!

Shock of the day

Saturday! Shock of the day!!

When I check my email,

lomography sent me a mail that I has been awarded piggies point,

I was shock to see the points,

I thought the point was awarded for the articles that I submitted before.

But it was for other thing,

it was awarded for HOME OF THE DAY,

for Lomography Asia!

Thank you!

I love the photo so much,

and I am glad that you all love it too.

Discover of the day

Today I thought I want to try the film that I bought, which is Ferrania Solaris 100. Then I open it, with full of excitement. But when I see it, WHAT!!!! A Lomo 100 film????!!!!

Now I know that Solaris 100 and Lomo 100 are the same film. But I bought Solaris 100 with higher price. So next time, just buy the Lomo 100. Save your money.

Ferrania Solaris 100 = Lomography Color Negative 100

How about Solaris 400 and 800?? I think would be the same too.

Discover of the day, and consider as shock of the day.

Yeah New FILM!

Look so familiar

WHAT!!?

Some story about some purchase

Spinner 360 having 30% discount from 9-11 August!!! 

But I'm not excited. Why? 

Because I JUST BOUGHT MY SPINNER 360 MOTORIZER BEFORE THE DISCOUNT!!

Before discount HKD 1380,

after 30% discount HKD 966,

save HKD 414!!!!

Yes, I admitted, I use 10% discount voucher,

so I still save HKD 138,

But I STILL LOST HKD 276!!!

So is RM110.85!!!

I bought it during Attic sale,

Yes, I bought the Gorillapod at the same time,

which was 15% off,

and used my 100 piggies.

But now 20 piggies in account which will expired soon,

get the Spinner 360 and sell it?

Maybe can earn some extra RM100?

Tipster of the week!!

I made it!! Tipster of the week!! Recently I just submitted 2 tipster articles, one of them has been chosen as tipster of the week.

Shoot with your Horizon Perfekt Day and Night

Horizon Perfekt always my favorite camera, although it stays at its dry box for few months, but I still love it. I will bring him out soon. Because I'm going to Genting Highlands this week for Khalil Fong's concert. So it is time to bring my lovely camera out for a walk. 

But still, even though I developed the Horizon film, I can't get it scan. Because I sold my scanner. I'm looking for a scanner which could scan 2 or 4 strips of film at once. Probably Canon 9000F or Epson V700. Those camera are able to scan 120 film format. As this mean, I can get Lubitel 166+? 

I'm collecting piggies points now. But what should I get? I got all those camera that I'm interested, so far do not have any camera that I want to bump in for. So, probably, maybe, Spinner motorizer, which is more expensive than Spinner, or Joby GorillaPod, which is nice and easy to use tripod, or maybe Lubitel 166+?? But then 120 film is so expensive. 

Collect piggy first, think afterward.

THE FUTURE IS ANALOGUE!

Ok, It is 200 now.

The first photo with 200 likes. Oh oh oh, thank you.

I'm glad, but I left my LC-A+ aside for quite some time. Maybe I got too many camera to test out. Bring the camera into life? I didn't bring camera to work. Everyday routine would just like, go to office, back home, sleep. No travel recently since last travel to Bali. Time, don't blame on time, blame myself for not planning and arrange nicely with time. 24 hours a day, and everyone do have the same quota. Use it nicely.

Lomography will  launch new product soon. Please, no more re-issue camera. I don't want to see so many la sardina or fisheye, or diana mini. I don't own any la sardina. No intention. Please, need something fresh and new. If camera with 110 film, I give up too.
