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

This film stock renders color well-matched my impression towards London Bank area
A lovely experimental film, never quite know what youre going to get - but that's the fun of it!
The description of this film intrigued me. Would it produce colours evoking hanging out with Bowie in 1970s Berlin, or resembling stills from a classic Cold War Spy Movie? I desided to try it out on a dull and rainy day in Cumbria in February-a dull and rainy day even by the usual standards of Cumbrian winter days, rating the film at ISO 400 in my Rolleicord. While wandering round Brougham churchyard just outside the Lake District, I found lots of minimally wintry greens and browns to turn my lens on. Metropolis took me back to my earliest days in photography, when Margaret Thatcher was PM, there was still a Soviet Union and New Romantics ruled the charts. The colour rendering was pleasingly evocative of the likes of Kodacolour and Agfacolour . The punchy contrast cut through the greyness. Overall I can't wait to fire up another roll, maybe in the city...LOMO not FOMO!
My new favourite film. Typically you would think to use this in industrial areas, but where this film really stands out is when you introduce vivid colours into the shot, turns bright colours into muted yet beautiful shades that are full of depth! The contrast on this film is spectacular!
Was intrigued to try this one as I liked the idea of high contrast and low saturation.
Shot it at ISO 200 on a Mamiya tlr and had it lab processed, probably should have had it scanned at the time too!
Quite taken with the results, I got the subdued tones I was hoping for on some autumnal pictures of local holiday resorts. Mostly shot on fairly dull, grey days which possibly helped to give the effect I was looking for.
Definitely one to use again.
