LOMOgraphy has announced the release of a new Fujifilm Instax Wide back for large format cameras.
The LOMOGraflok 4×5 Instant Back is available for pre-order through the LOMOgraphy site now, with a 10% discount compared to its full retail price.
The back is now available for £116 (compared to the retail price of £129). The backs should be delivered in April 2021.
A press release from LOMOgrapy says: “We are thrilled to introduce you to the latest LOMOgraphy invention, a much-requested revival from the large format community – the LOMOGraflok 4×5 Instant Back. The world’s first Instant Back for 4×5 cameras designed for Fujifilm Instax Wide is now available for pre-order with a 10% discount.
Below are some test images taken on the back, all shot on Fuji Instax Wide film.
“Developed together with large format photography professionals, we have invented an individual light-tightened Instant film ejection unit for 4×5 cameras using Fujifilm Instax Wide film – the most widely available and cost-effective instant film on the market.
“Now, with the LOMOGraflok, large format photographers have a readymade, easy solution for shooting with Instax film. It’s the perfect addition to the large format toolkit and allows for unrestricted experimentation, testing different shooting settings with ease and enjoying great results within seconds. Large format photography just got a whole lot easier, less expensive, and more accessible.”
The LOMOgraphy launch comes amid a resurgence in interest in large format photography and new cameras and accessories launched by the likes of the UK’s Intrepid and Chroma Cameras.
