The LOMO Colorsplash Camera

Most of you loved the Lomolitos Colored Cameras, so I figured I'd share this updated version with not one, but a whopping thirteen colored filters! Featured on GeekAlerts, the Lomography Colorsplash 35MM Camera uses tinted flash filters and long exposure settings to create dreamy-streaked retro style images that are rich in color! For $50 you will get the camera, a battery, film, poster, extra color filters, and a skin camera bag. Although the possibilities are endless with digital cameras, I truly appreciate the simplicity of point-and-click cameras-especially when they are as fun as this one.

Love It Or Leave It: Lomolitos Colored Cameras

I see blue, I see red, I see green, I see yellow. Now all your pictures can be color-coded with the artsy Lomography Lomolitos Single Use Camera. Each camera comes pre-loaded with 24-exposure film and a single colored filter that can be switched on or off. For $11, you can give it a try and pitch it if you don't like the results. Let me know if you love it or if you'd rather stick with Photoshop for adding color.

Cool Concept: Nikon 360 Degrees Digital Camera

Yesterday a bunch of you admitted you love playing around with fun and funky cameras like the colored Lomolitos cameras and the hilarious fisheye lens camera, so when I saw the concept for the Nikon 360 Degrees Digital Camera I knew I wouldn't be the only excited photographer around here. The idea is the camera can take an "unbroken view of an entire surrounding area," (ie panoramic shots).

With most cameras, getting a real panoramic shot means turning 360 degrees, to receive an unbroken view. Based on an ergonomic cylindrical form lens, the Nikon 360 allows you take an all-round picture. It has an angle indicator that provides a gauge on the direction of the rotating head and is also an additional detail to provide the camera with a stronger and steadier feel while in operation. What do you think of the idea?

Do You Ever Experiment With Funky Fun Cameras?

Lately I've been seeing quite the array of unique manual cameras. Remember the colored Lomolitos cameras and the hilarious fisheye lens camera? And check out this one below - the Lomo Oktomat 35mm camera with eight built-in lenses. By taking one shot, this camera will produce eight sequential images on a single 35mm negative. Usually I just take pictures with my digital cam and play around with photoshop for cool effects, but I'm curious to know if you ever use any artsy cameras like these ones? Leave your comments below!
