Lomography Metropolis 35mm is the FIRST new colour negative film to the market for over five years!
Lomography Metropolis has been carefully crafted to produce desaturated, high-contrast photos - finetuned to mimic the aesthetic of old-time movie theatres and photobooks - and very different from the other fresh 35mm colour films available to buy today.
Grab a roll now to enjoy the fine grain, deep blacks, high contrast and abrupt tonal curve for some seriously dramaticfilm photographs. For more info on getting the best from the film check out our article of Lomography's Inside Tips!
Lomography has been at the forefront of the analogue revolution for decades. Starting in 1992 with some Viennese students falling in love with the aesthetic of a particular Soviet camera (the iconic LC-A) - they founded a movement and a company that would introduce a new generation to the joys of plastic cameras and experimental film. Periodically innovating new cameras for existing formats - and sometimes bringing back formats specially for their cameras! - they are vibrant and creative

Metropolis is definitely a “vibey” film. It’s grainy, cool, and with an interesting pop of yellow colours. It’s not versatile, I wouldn’t go shooting flowers or neons with it - but if you think of it as a kind of black and white with a hint of colour you can get some really lovely results. Definitely a winner for street, but I wouldn’t use it for just any situation.

Cold wintery colours and high contrast. Quite moody but can be a little gloomy and drab

Grungy and desaturated goodness
Personally I’m not a fan…but I can see how this could fare well if a grungey aesthetic is needed.
My partner took a roll to a festival and I think it suited that sort of occasion really well. It’s somewhat dynamic, but it’s not got a lot of colour to it (intentionally) so it’s not something I’d use unless I absolutely wanted that desaturated/high contrast look!

Colour done differently
For something a bit different you can't go wrong with Metropolis. It offers an step backed feel that doesn't look quite like anything else. A firm favourite of mine, especially when shooting in subdued lighting.

Desaturated and fun
If you're wanting to shoot something a little different this is fun. I wouldn't shoot any portraits with it but it's great if you want to suck the vibrancy out of everything.
