Lomography has launched a spectacularly colourful new version of its Lomomatic 110 compact camera for summer.
The new Discomatic version of the 110-format camera is in a colour scheme of dazzling blue, pink and yellow – looking every inch like something that might have been released in the 1980s.
“Summer’s here and we’re ready to relive the heyday of the disco with the popping new Lomomatic 110 Discomatic,” Lomography said in a press release. “This colourful concoction comes with all the exciting features that have made the Lomomatic 110 a favorite among the Lomography Community. A true statement of style and a creative sidekick for life, everyone loves a little funk!
“Don’t be fooled by its size – this creative companion is bursting with big ideas! It’s a thrilling companion for analogue beginners, the sharpest and most trusted 110
camera for seasoned photographers, and a nostalgic voyage for those yearning for the grand old days of 110 film.
“Opening the door to a world of possibilities with a 23mm Minitar Glass Lens, fully automatic settings, controllable ISO, zone focusing, and interchangeable apertures, it can squeeze into all types of small spaces for crazy Lomographic perspectives. Ready for anything, the Lomomatic 110 captures fragments of life; each frame a glimpse into a spontaneous moment frozen in time, effortlessly transformed into a vibrant memory.”
