Getting Started

you can use any film camera to take "lomography" as long you follow the lomo 10 rules  1. Take your LOMO everywhere you go. 2. Use it anytime - day or night. 3. Lomography is not an interference in your life, but a part of it. 4. Shoot from the hip. 5. Approach the objects of your lomographic desire as close as possible. 6. Don't think. 7. Be fast. 8. You don't have to know beforehand what you've captured on film. 9. You don't have to know afterwards, either. 10. Don't worry about the rules.

QUOTE Lomography, a registered trademark of Lomographische AG (Austria), is a movement that, via the Lomography Society International, promotes the use of LOMO cameras — primarily and most famously the LC-A but also cameras as unlike this as the fisheye lomography camera — and a "shoot from the hip" attitude. (Many outsiders regard it as merely a sales gimmick to drive sales of these cameras at inflated prices.) Viewed as either a modern impressionistic art movement for photography to create images of everyday life or a simple (and effective) marketing ploy, Lomography has attracted a large international following around "The10 rules"
10 Rules 1. Take your LOMO everywhere you go. 2. Use it anytime - day or night. 3. Lomography is not an interference in your life, but a part of it. 4. Shoot from the hip. 5. Approach the objects of your lomographic desire as close as possible. 6. Don't think. 7. Be fast. 8. You don't have to know beforehand what you've captured on film. 9. You don't have to know afterwards, either. 10. Don't worry about the rules.
The photographic results of "Lomography"
Subjects Blue skies, brightly colored objects, pink noses of pets, young people pulling faces are common.
Focus The original Lomo cannot focus so close, and anyway rules 6 and 7 discourage focusing. The photographs are often out of focus (especially when they are of pets' noses). This "effect" can of course be achieved with most cameras.
Degraded edges The original Lomo has better image quality in the center than at the edges. This effect — much more pronounced with the Holga, which adds vignetting — can of course be achieved with many cheap cameras.
Lurid colors The original Lomo is widely believed to produce vivid colors. This claim has gone unexplained, and the evidence provided for it is much less a matter of the lens (or camera) than of film processing techniques, which can of course be equally applied to film from any 35mm camera.

I read the Lomo rules and I failed 1, 2, 4, 6, 7 & 9. Bye bye Lomo people. Somehow, I sensed that digital can't be Lomo. You can do all kinds of things using Photoshop with any digital P&S. If the masses embrace digital Lomo, it will definitely affect the sales of Lomo film cameras.

Another reason is to be confirmed, which is when you use E6 to develop negative will produce toxic.

QUOTE(Grain @ May 24 2009, 06:24 PM) The picture that you showed is taken by multiple exposure function. Easily can achieve by most of the LOMO Camera, like LC-A+, Fisheye2, Holga, Diana The camera you showed is BlackBird Fly, from SuperHeadz - http://www.superheadz.com/bbf/
