    Paul Smith Makes Lomo Camera Fashionable with Fisheye No.2

    Paul Smith's Fisheye No.2 Lomo camera is a subtle mixture of two things: The 180-degree bug-eye lens creates distorted images that are even more arty than your usual Lomograph. Plus to the dwindling number of wet-chemistry photography fans (including myself) Lomography is something of a fashion-statement all of its own. The camera has bulb setting for long exposures, a multiple-exposure setting, built-in flash and a hotshoe, and is dressed up in trademark Paul Smith stripes. And it's limited edition, so it's going for a fashionably high $150. [PaulSmith via LikeCool]

    Lomography Ringflash for Four Colors in One Frame

    This Lomography Ringflash attaches to the outside of your lens, and its four lighting elements each deliver a different color to your subject. You can use it as a single color ring flash, too, but its makers encourage you to get up close to your subject and flash a picture that has four different kinds of lighting in the same frame. Powered by two AA batteries, it fires via an external hot shoe or its own built-in slave trigger. Might be fun for some trippy looking effects. But that's not all it can do. More »

    Lomo Oktomat 8-Lens Camera

    Lomo is known for unique cameras, like the fisheye camera and now this eight lens camera. We have seen a four-lens camera in the past that did a little pop art effect, but the Oktomat from LOMO is the real deal. This $40 camera has eight lenses that take eight photos over 2.5 seconds. It's hell of a lot better than buying a $1,000 DSLR and giant memory card for burst photo taking. More »

    Lomographic Fisheye Camera #Two: Still Capturing 180-degrees of Cool

    The Lomo cameras were originally known for their leaky bodies that contaminate film with errant light — perfect for art house photos. This 35mm fisheye film camera improves upon Lomo's best selling first with more image distorting capabilities, and a metal case. More, details, and sample shots, after the jump. More »
