GEOMETRIC GORGEOUSNESS
Our La Sardina is a fashionable little fellow who can wear really everything. But as a true fashionista, La Sardina never wears one style twice. After celebrating adventurous sailor fashion, we gave her a new very visual look that will rock the catwalks all over this planet. Domino, Möbius, Quadrat and Cubic are the names of a new collection wearing classy patterns all over their body. While La Sardina’s outfit changed, her inner values are still the same: An ultra wide-angle plastic lens, 35 mm film and super easy handling are completing this fashionable package for analogue lovers.

PATTERN PALS
Playful patterns never go out of season! Domino comes in a black and white op art pattern to please lovers of elegant extravaganza. Möbius will entrap you in his purple and yellow web like lines while Quadrat cherishes the prototype of classic patterns: dog’s-tooth check. Cubic is for the ones who love to switch between stripes and diamonds in white, black and red. To complete this fashionable package we designed all new Photo Accordions with matching patterns to keep your photos safe in style. Whatever pattern you chose, you can be sure to be the center of attention at every fashion show!

SARDINE CAN CAMERA
When we introduced La Sardina in summer, this little fishy pal swept Lomographers all over the world off their feet. Sweet design combined with super easy handling make La Sardina the perfect every day camera that captures wide angle pictures wherever and whenever you want. Its plastic wide angle lens enables pros and beginners to shoot beautiful Lomographs easily. No need for long explanations at your local lab, the processing is really easy due to the regular format of the shots. Accompanied by Fritz the Blitz, our most sophisticated flash, La Sardina will make your photos shine.
