Product Description

From the Manufacturer

From the Manufacturer Good-humored, ironic, rock 'n' roll, and very, very wide, the Lomography Fisheye 35mm Camera--the world's only 35mm camera with a built-in fisheye lens--is waiting for you.

Hold on tight. Imagine everything above, below, and around you streaming through your eyes and compacting into a nice little ball. Think about your best friend's nose being vacuum-sucked into your lens, all the while their eyes and forehead are s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d back. Visualize yourself bowled over by the devastating colors that only fine glass can deliver. The world's first honest-to-god 35mm fisheye camera is here and ready to swim into your life. Open your heart, stretch out your hands, and grease up your fins.

Lomography Fisheye 35mm Camera
A sampling of day- and flash-lit Lomography Fisheye 35mm Camera images.
The Lomography Fisheye sees a sweeping 170-degree view--compacting everything around you into a circular image. Get right up to your subject's nose for slamming distortion effects. Huge depth of field renders both the foreground and background in complete focus. Its premium glass lens offers bright colors and knockout contrast. Rocks a built-in electronic flash for use day or night. Uses normal 35mm film that can be processed anywhere.

Features:

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. See for yourself--the effect is simply stunning.

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.

Built-in electronic flash
Whenever you need him, this bright little hombre is ready to light up and fire a solid burst of white. Your Fisheye pleasure is no longer limited to daylight hours.

Sleek goldfish embossing
Swimming off the right side of your camera is a beautifully detailed "koi" goldfish. One part children's illustration and one part yakuza tattoo--it's a real looker on the Fisheye.

Forget the viewfinder
Because it doesn't work anyway. With the Fisheye's massive field of view, it sees much more than any simple viewfinder or even your own eyes can see. The Fisheye truly invites you to "shoot from the hip" and capture everything from the Earth to the heavens in the process.

What's in the Box
Lomography Fisheye camera, hand strap, editorial booklet, and full documentation.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's about fun., November 27, 2005
By J. Skilton (Portland, OR USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Cheap little camera with a pretty good glass lens. Produces suprisingly sharp and striking photos. Fixed focus and shutter / aperture, and the lens barrel partly blocks the flash, so use fast film - 400 or 800 speed - and shoot in well-lit rooms or daylight. I spent the last week sticking it in peoples faces, and the prints made us laugh. If you're expecting a Nikon, you'll be disappointed - so, Don't Expect a Nikon! Expect a fun little camera with a lot of laughs for the buck. 5 stars because it does all it tries to do.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Camera is all about YOU!, February 23, 2006
By M. M. D'Ambrosio (Fair Oaks, CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I read the comments (even the bad one) before I purchased this camera. I took a chance because for something that might be really cool, its only $40. And he was right, the viewfinder is useless, but they even tell you that in the manual. Also, you do have to get really close to the subject, and shots only come out good if there's LOTS of light (especially indoor). Anyway, my first set of prints came out just okay, with a few amazing shots. From that set of prints I learned how to maximize the potential of this camera. The key is to fill up the frame. I took a shot of my friend out in a parking lot. The foreground was just her and the background was the sky. It came out so cool because the entire frame had something in it. There were scattered clouds everywhere, if the sky had been clear it would have just been clear blue space. But because I filled up the frame with objects everywhere, there were things to be distorted with the fisheye. I took another shot of the courtyard of a tall apartment building. That came out great because there were so many vertical lines and the fisheye could bend them. This camera doesn't take great pictures by itself so don't expect it to. If you've got the talent, imagination, or just plain curiousity, it's a great way to spend $40. I love it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Alot of FUN, April 21, 2005
By Steev "steevil" (san jose, ca United States) - See all my reviews
Lomo cameras are a lot of fun. Shooting from the hip, so to say, is their motto and it works with their cameras. This camera has an awesome lens that capures your world in a whole new way. Yes this camera is plastic and cheap feeling, but the results are awesome. Rich in color and it bends your world through its fish eye lens. Have fun! I am!
