The Fisheye is one of the most unique models within Lomography’s camera range as it has a 170° field of vision where you can preview your surroundings through its tiny but effective viewfinder. The plastic optics of the lens’ construction will provide your subjects with radiant colors whilst maintaining its superior sharpness. With the built-in flash, you’ll never have to worry about taking photos in dark situations, as it also features a number of exposure options and the creative “B” (Bulb) setting. By installing the Fisheye-Submarine protection shell, you can dive in 20m underwater and shoot away till your heart’s content. The Fisheye also takes the traditional and accessible 35mm film format, hence its popularity amongst users.
Sanrio’s Hello Kitty and Lomography recently joined up to reach out to a different type of audience. The camera body utilizes the classic red, white and blue colorway and also includes the iconic Hello Kitty motif on the front and back of this collaborative piece. Other key features include a vibrant red camera strap and a Hello Kitty branded lens cap. This cute variant of the original model with its signature fisheye effect will be the perfect collector’s item of all die-hard Hello Kitty fans. The package also comes with a “The Fisheye View” photo album that showcases works from Lomographers around the world.
