Leica = Lamborghini ????





LEICA....
2004年,是我踏入摄影的"年代".以前的导师经常提起LEICA 相机的"威水史"
LEICA相机可说是相机中的Lamborghini!!!众所周知摄影是一种"贵族"的玩意..
买了相机,又要买镜头.有了镜头,又想要一支F2.8的大炮,有了大炮,又想要FISHEYE...
买了FISHEYE,又是时候换机了或被最新的相机科技所吸引,结果....

不知道什么时候开始喜欢上LEICA R8.
LEICA R8,是一架菲林相机."想当年"多亏"月老"的帮忙下,让我有机会接触LEICA R8菲林相机.与数码相机的合成体!!以当年的科技,这相机可说是天价!!!












LEICA R8



如今,已经踏入社会工作...已经拥有一些属于自己的"棺材本"!!所以决定在我来临的24岁生日礼物,要送自己一架..........................
LEICA R8!!!不对,不对!!!LEICA D-LUX 4是才对!

如果要买LEICA R8,看来我必须在1825天内不能用钱,在43800小时拼命的找PART TIME....
到时候,唯有朋友们烧给我了!!! 哈哈.

LEICA D-LUX 4也不错嘛!!!LEICA哦!!!
相机中的Lamborghini!!

Chromiacs Edition - Fisheye No.2 Camera


我开始疯狂了...
由于有一个好兄弟的"扛头"让我破产了.
他的出现,让我了解LOMOGRAPHY 的精神.LOMO实在太神奇了.
突然情不自禁的上网订购了 Chromiacs Edition - Fisheye No.2 Camera
佑龙,谢谢你的介绍...
让我不见了马币300多零吉买架 Chromiacs Edition - Fisheye No.2 Camera
老兄,你几时要买LOMO相机?

LOMO - Fisheye No.2 Camera

OVERVIEW :
Shiny, shimmering, splendid! We’re talking about some of your favorite Lomographic snappers – the Diana F+, Colorsplash, Supersampler, and Fisheye 2 - dressed up in brilliant chrome! Prepare to be dazed - these limited-edition Chromiacs offers the same familiar features, but they grab extra attention with their looks. So put on that flashy attitude and start shooting with these dazzling babies!

FEATURES :
The world’s greatest compact Fisheye camera has become more amazing than you ever thought possible! Not only does it have the nearly 180-degree wide-angle view and stunning fisheye barrel distortion that we all know and love. The Fisheye No. 2 offers a bulb setting for long exposures, a switch for multiple exposures on the same frame, the ability to fire both a hotshoe flash and the built-in flash, a true fisheye viewfinder, and a “full metal jacket” body treatment. With this new arsenal, the techniques and possibilities for your Fisheye lomography are endless! Uses normal 35mm film that can be developed anywhere.

“B” (Bulb) setting
By holding down the shutter button with your finger, you can keep the shutter open for as long as you like – thereby inviting all the gorgeous ambient light outside to come on in. To close the shutter, merely release the button.

“LNB” variable exposure switch
Use this to control your Fisheye 2’s shutter timing. “L” locks the shutter so it can’t accidentally fire. “N” shoots a normal, instant exposure (1/100 sec, f/8). “B” or “bulb” selects Fisheye 2’s long exposure capabilities – as detailed above.

Standard Flash Hotshoe & Built-In Electronic Flash
Use this to sync a Lomographic Colorsplash Flash or any other manual hotshoe flash to your Fisheye 2. The flash will fire when you hit the shutter release. You can also use the internal (built-in) flash as well. When using the “N” setting, both the internal and hotshoe flash will fire when you hit the shutter button (first curtain). If you select “B,” then the hotshoe flash will fire when you first depress the button (first curtain), and the internal flash will fire when you let go of the button (second curtain).

Multiple Exposure Switch (MX)
This allows you to take two or more shots on the same frame. Take your first shot, press the MX button, and you’re now ready for the next one. Repeat as many times as you like.

Accessory Viewfinder
Just slip this little jewel into the hotshoe and you’ll get an authentic preview of the fisheye treat waiting for you to capture it.

Full Metal Jacket
If those rowdy bikers are giving you a hard time, then just show ‘em the Fisheye 2’s new hard-as-nails metal-plated exterior. Built for toughness, but refined for beauty – you’ll feel equally comfortable slinging your camera at a Texas Hog Pit or a Parisian Debutante Ball.

170-degree field of view
The heart, soul, and blood of the Fisheye's brilliance: an enormous field of view that takes in literally half of the world around you and compacts it into a nice and tight circular image. Barrel distortions twist and bend your subjects around the edges, stretch them towards and away from your lens, and converge their lines towards the center.

Extreme close-up potential
Not an exercise for the timid - the Fisheye lavishly rewards those who bravely advance within a whisper of their subject. Get right up to their face, and watch their nose get sucked into your lens while their ears and forehead s-l-i-d-e-s backwards. Sharp, beautiful pictures are possible from even the closest quarters. Party on.

Huge depth of field
Super-wide-angle images like the ones spat out by the Fisheye come with a wonderful bonus: focused sharpness from the front to the rear of your image. Each fisheye image shows massive depth of field, so your subject and background will be nice and crispy clear.

Premium glass optics
Sitting inside that massive snout are several of the loveliest optical-glass lens elements that you have ever seen. They work together in perfect harmony to give you bright colors, punchy contrast, super-blue skies, ultra-red lips, and yellow bananas like you have never seen before.

Normal 35mm Film & Normal Development
That’s right. Both the Fisheye and Fisheye No. 2 take normal 35mm film that any juke-joint lab, drugstore, or supermarket can easily process without a second thought.

One Year Warranty
The Lomographic Society International guarantees your camera against any manufacturer-related defects for one full year after your receive it.

LOMO 回归不便传统的自爽年代.
什么是LOMO ?
LOMO 是一个底片相机品牌,一种摄影态度,一种玩了指标,一种个性标签

LOMO是俄文"列宁格勒光学机械学会"(Leningradskoje Opitiko Mechanitschekoje Objedinenie)的缩写.1914年成立,并为俄国沙皇军队提供光学仪器,后来转为替苏联研究开发光学,军事,医学和太空探索领域器材的研究.1982年圣彼得堡LOMO总部受到苏联国防部的要求,试图设计一款全功能全天候能使用,容易携带又坚固耐用,以供情报人员使用的相机.设计者以日本CASINA CX 小型相机作为蓝本,并采用当时发展成熟含有低辐射高透光率的航太光学光学玻璃作为镜头镜片,让情报员在低光源下也能拍摄.没想到最后设计出来的成品不符合需求,于是遭到情报单位拒收的困境.

为了解决问题,苏联国防部下令将LOMO转为一般商业用途,同时也将这台相机一并介绍给越南,古巴和东德的共产主义的同志,希望他们能共曩盛举,造成LOMO百万台的销售狂潮,但过没多久,苏联瓦解,LC-A停产,LC-A从此走入历史.

简而言之,LOMO起源于一台间谍机



LOMO还有一些美丽的小故事......
1991年,有几个奥地利学生到布拉格度假,在相馆里发现LC-A,年轻随性的学生们随手拍下许多狂欢照片,原以为结果会曝光不足的胶卷,没想到LC-A特殊镜头设计,竟然拍出一般想机拍不出来的特别彩色,这下子乐坏了这几个小伙子,决定把他们的喜悦跟其他人分享,后来他们在维也纳成立了LOMOGRAPHY SOCIETY

此协会自1992年成立以来,LOMO热潮一发不可收拾,也创造出LOMO族群的系列关键字,如LOMOGRAPHY (以LOMO相机拍照,用LOMO相机拍的照片), LOMO WALL (将LOMO照片集结展出的影像墙报),LOMOGRAPHER (用LOMO相机拍照的人),LOMOGRAPH (LOMO照片)




LOMOGRAPHY 黄金十律
  1. 机不离手
  2. 不分昼夜,随时使用
  3. LOMO是生活的一部分
  4. 近拍,尽可能接近你想拍的物件
  5. 别想
  6. 要快
  7. 你不用完全知道拍什么
  8. 你也不用曾经记得拍过什么
  9. 从头顶或屁股的位置拍照
  10. 忘记以上的规则
