Frequently Asked Questions About Lomo

Decided to write this entry after I get bored with so many repititive questions about lomo. Hope this can help people who just new in lomography and considering to be part of lomo family.

***********************************************************

What is LOMO / lomography?

In simple words, lomography is a photography using analog cameras. Read more on wikipedia or lomography web (what the hell is lomo).

In case you dont know, analog camera use films and you need to develop the films before you can see the photos. Nowadays, people rarely print out the picture on paper, it was scanned into CD / converted to digital image using a scanner. (more…)

Lomography #03: Films Part 1

Ada dua jenis filem. NEGATIVE film (Color/Black&White) and SLIDE film. And filem-filem yang Saffa paparkan pada hari ni/ dalam entri ni, semuanya slide film.

Baik lah. Kita mula kan dengan soalan paling famous. Boleh ignore/skip je.

CROSS PROCESS?

A slide film can be processed via e-6 chemicals. A color negative film can be processed via c-41 chemicals. Now, most of the labs has C-41 processing tank/machine. So if you have this Lomo XPRO 100 from Lomography (which is slide film), you cook this suppose-to-be E6 chemical into a C41 machine! What will you get? Crazy colors! Now that’s what Cross-process is! *

Now. Let’s proceed to the films!

Saffa tak pernah try guna Film X-Pro.. Saffa rasa filem ni macam EBX? Saturated and BLUE-ish. Bila cross process, the colors will be more vibrant! (more…)
