The NYC Lomography Gallery Store had their annual sample sale last weekend, and I bought the Diana F+ with Instant Back. Everytime I’ve gone into the store, I would eyeball the Snowcat, and that’s what I got! A floor sample! The camera was half off, and the instant back was 15% off! Sweet deal. Coincidentally, the NYC Lomography Store tweeted today that they are having a Diana F+ Instant Back race this Saturday. I am so psychic, it’s scary.
The Diana lomo camera is another medium format camera, like the Holga. When I compare the shots, I feel like the Diana has a more dreamy nostalgic feel, but both are good for that charming vintage toy camera look & feel. The Holga is a cheaper camera, but the Diana has more fun accessories to add on to it. I bought the instant back and I LOVE IT. It uses Fuji Instax film. The joy is that, for once, lomography is instant, and I don’t have to wait around for developed results, and hard-to-find medium format developing. (I am detrimentally impatient.)


i love the grainy quality of the Lomo. That pic of Tony with the antenna coming out of his head is great.
Thanks! It looks like an alien yarmelke or however you spell it!
i like the vengeance is mine and the montclair star one. can’t wait to buy my own diana with instantback! great pics!
Thanks! If you go this Saturday, you can take instant pics without having to buy it! Yayyy.
i would love 2 but its gonna be 16-27 degrees outside. too cold for lomo. lol
haha true! i feel like the instax decvelop slower in the cold, too!
You’re going to have to explain this instant back thing to me. You can still do double exposures? I think I’m in love. The inlaws pic looks so old. I love it. I love them all. when it gets warmer, I need to visit this store.
