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 experiemental film. Periodically innovating new cameras for existing formats - and sometimes bringing back formats specially for their cameras! - they are vibrant and creative

I have always been a fan of Lomography's 800 in 35mm but needed some slower film to shoot in my Ondu pinhole. Lomo's 100 in 120 seemed the ideal choice, and I wasn't disappointed.
The film seems to handle under/over exposure fairly well, I did get some colour shift but at long exposures this is to be expected.
Colours look nice and vibrant and even with long exposures the grain stays pretty minimal.
Overall its a pretty good low cost colour negative film.
This (along with some nice safe, FP4) was one of my first forays into 120 for many years to test out a £20 Zeiss Iconta 521/16 that I couldn't resist on Ebay.. Shot it at box, trusting the 80 year old camera's shutter speeds, and developed in Tetenal C-41 at 30 degrees. As it turns out, the speeds were out by anything from +0.5 to -1 stop, so the forgiving latitude this film displayed was welcome!!
Sharpness is excellent - when the limitations of the camera and my fumbling attempts at guessing distances allowed - and colours are bright, well saturated (possibly a little over-saturated towards the reds), with nice graduation.
The attached pics are straight scans with nothing done in post as I believe that's the best way to show the potential of the film rather than any computer skills I may (or may not!) have.
For the price I'm not sure this could be beaten anywhere and will be a staple in my bag from now on.
Lomo100 delivers great results and great colors for its price. Being almost the only low speed budget color medium format film also helps. Great for sunny days and portraits.
This film has the double-distinction of being the first roll of 120 film I've shot in over 20 years and also the first roll of film through my new (to me) Mamiya C33. I bought the three film pack simply as a buget colour film to try out my camera. I wouldn't be too distraught if I butchered the shots! After getting the first roll back from the lab I was amazed at what I saw. The detail in the images was wonderul. Very low grain. The colour is lovely too, slightly muted with a lovely tone. I used to shoot quite a lot of Kodak colour film and the look of this film felt very familiar, so that was a big plus! I shot the whole roll outdoors, in various countryside locations, in the late afternoon sunshine. The film responds very well there. Overall I'm impressed by this film and will certainly be keeping a roll or two in my camera bag.
I bought these rolls without knowing what to expect and the results were quite good!
I like the colours and the very fine grane. I developed them at home with C41 and, although I am a beginner, I am happy with them. I will certainly buy it again.
