Video

Literally just purchased a… Lomography Lomo’Instant Square Glass… after a ton of research. I spent probably three hours comparing published photos on the Lomography website, finding some really awesome photographers in the process. I am so happy to have seen this video because it makes me even happier with the decision. Great stuff!

Chemical Failure

I like my sq6. It is my favorite and I have gotten sharp photos on it. Yes of course digital sensors are going to give you sharp photos. The reason cell phones are outselling dslrs and point and shoot digital cameras. The sensors are way better than digital cameras. And that is why cell phones are expensive.

I paid 1 dollar for mine! Sucker!

thanks for the comparison, i just bought lomo instant square, and i got fuji mini square and wide, i have to say i would never go back to the fuji plastic camera, possitive for lomo, + sharpest pictures evermade with instant films, + if you had good focusing and light color of the picture amazing, + extra lomofotografy efects, negatives, focusing very hard, viewfinder is a joke use a coke pipe as a finder good than this:), little bit hard to understand the lens so you are taking bad pictures,, if you are new in instant films definetly take a fuji camera it is very good and easy to use but if you want someting little bit professinal and diferent also you are allready accepting losing so many instant films while try to understant the lomo square, than just take it.

found this from reddit, cheers

Doensn't post for years. Then pops up and posts a really useful comparison. Been trying to figure out between the SQ6 and Lomo Instant Square glass, thanks!

Those Hybrid Cameras are nice when you wanna play around and have an (expensive) portable Printer. Its just sad, that the combos Fuji is offering are so bad. Basically taking a picture with your smartphone and printing it on your own, cheap photo printer at home delivers better pictures than this. I am rooting for new and better truly analog instant cameras. Altough I am aware, that it seems this ship has sailed.

Really weird why Fujifilm doesnt sell cameras with modes above their mini range anymore.

I bought a NONS 660. It is formatted for Instax Square, but it is in a body that (with the proper adapters) will attach my manual Canon FD lenses. It's SLR, so I can set the focus and iris with accuracy. It was $600, and well worth it.

hey man question, on cameras like the Lomo, how do you set the aperture and focus? the view finder does not show live focusing does it? how are you supposed to do that?

Great review,,,liked the sq1 the best

That actually made me laugh 😂

I agree those travel cases suck. I always end up throwing them away.

I got 3 instant camera, one being lomograhpy instant wide, i like their camera, becasue it has many feature to use, when picture is good, it really is very good, however it is not stable compare to fujifilm camera, my one has ejecting problem, which is a real pain in the ass. LOMO offer me a dsicount to buy a new which i am still thinking if i should get antoher instant wide or go for the square one.

Try another pack but let the film develop first in a dark place like a blackout bag for 15 mins and see your results ❤

I originally was gonna find a SQ6 since they seem decent but the fact you can only select some modes and not combo modes that should work together is a big con to me. So I'm unsure on that now. I might still consider one if I can get one secondhand for dirt cheap. Beyond that cam though I was tempted on the lomo cam. But there's like 2 things that have been holding me off on getting the LISG, which was hearing about metering issues, but it seems to work great for you and a couple others I've seen, and the fact the viewfinder is so far offset. But I guess if I'm working with a subject that close. I'm gonna be lining it up differently anyways. Thanks for the info about these cams. It does give me a good bit of insight on what to save up for now.

I saw it to it was cool

Hey that's cool thanks

I love the blue, hope they keep it going!!!

Looks like you need a frog tongue. The top of each image is light damaged.

is that a modded sx-70?

You’re supposed to put it in a dark place for like 15 minutes for it to develop. Exposing light to it while it’s developing ruins the photo

How do you purchase Amazon returns?

Wish you had actually showed a softbox hung on the wall. But otherwise, will consider this idea. My problem is my studio walls are concrete. So, not sure this will work.

Haha ikea is awesome. They are currently sending me a replacement part as I speak lol

What else do you know about photography?? Id be interested in videos about that

Lol Pandora just played Eminem on Five Finger Death Punch Radio. Fail...

This is great. However, I want to know how to do this including using the halogen light, that has a plug, as I am filming in a small space.

You look like this kid I was in a group home with. I think his name was Josh. Is your name Josh?

Love the idea

This is a very clever and cheap idea that deals with a concern of mine which is to hang the soft boxes without damaging the rings; however, I am trying to find a solution which would allow me to mount the soft boxes off the knockdown ceiling of one of the rooms of my home.
