my first lomo experience
i stumbled across these lomo cameras on the amazon.com website. they sounded fun so i ordered this particular camera. wow! i was pleasantly surprised with the different effects you can achieve by "shooting from the hip". definately use 400 or 800 speed film and definately take it everywhere you go. the case of the camera does seem like a cheaply made camera but WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE THE PICTURES THAT YOU WILL GET. definately worth the money and i will definately order more lomo specialty cameras....got my eye on the fisheye camera!
Four shots of fun
This guy was a long time coming. I got the original Actionsampler a few years ago, and always wanted to shoot it indoors. Alas, all of my attempts came out pretty grainy and dark.
Enter the Actionsampler Flash. I've been basically married to this buzzing little thing - it's awesome! The mechanics are smoother and the images are a lot sharper then the original Actionsampler. And, the four-step flash is great - it's fast as lighting and surprisingly strong. This item is really dope at a concert or party.
A few suggestions for prospective buyers...
1. Definitely buy this over the original Actionsampler. It's like night and day.
2. Use 400 or 800 speed film - that shutter moves fast, and anything slower might blur your images (unless you like that).
3. WAIT for the flash to charge fully and the ready light to come on. It can take about 12 seconds or so. If you fire before the flash is recycled, then one element might not flash and you'll get a black frame.
