I don't know how they will keep these in stock.
jennson · 2011-11-03 11:52
:O ..woaah
wn7ant · 2011-11-03 11:57
You know what would be interesting? Shoot a movie using high speed film (for low light), use fluorescent paint as the subject, and use a black light to light the film when you watch it. Just a thought
stipley · 2011-11-03 12:03
Amazing. Totally amazing!!!!!
bribri89 · 2011-11-03 12:05

mikomuha · 2011-11-03 12:18
Really want a package!
photomood · 2011-11-03 12:21
nice one! I'm going to order the package right now.. I really thought it would be expensive, but it's not! Awesome! :D
mikailus · 2011-11-03 12:21
I propose an idea:

There are 100 ft. rolls of 35mm film that are still being made. I wonder if Lomo would consider creating an adaptor or magazine for the camera to take 100 ft. rolls, as well as increase the shutter speed to at least 18 or 24 frames per second, and make it adaptable to small motors that run up to 24 frames/second.
alex34 · 2011-11-03 12:45
Supersampler with a crank, not a Super8. Woo.
cecilialisbon · 2011-11-03 13:36
Wow, this has just made my day, absolutely genius :D
sedgetone · 2011-11-03 13:49
Now all we need is the lab to do positive prints of our negs so we can view black & white or cross processed material. None cross processed slide should look really nice in the viewer. We'd also need some mad rapid cycling flash to be able to cope with it. I'm amazed at the price, I was expecting it to be crippling expensive to buy. I guess they'll make the money on the film sales and processing. It's nice but I'm not about to run out and buy one just yet.

Awesommmeee

angelhaken · 2011-11-03 14:26
@mikailus a adapter would be great :).. if u use a splitzer-mod u could run one roll of film twice so 288 Half-Frames instead of 144 .. i think its worth a try :P
bravebird · 2011-11-03 15:10
Definitely a must-have! Just bought it ;)
pheebs · 2011-11-03 15:37
@sedgetone Actually you do not need prints. All you need is either negatives or positives, scan them and chop them up into single photos to stich them together in a video using for example iMovie, Windows Movie Maker or Adobe Premiere.
Yes it is a very hands on process but that is what being analog is all about!
Rome wasn’t built in a day and your movie is analog and not digital.

You are right about the flash. A normal flash may not be able to recharge fast enough to reach numerous flashes per second. However you may still be able to create creative stop motion photos using a flash, or using a high-end flash to achieve frequent flashing.

I therefore do not recommend shooting in the dark expecting a well-lit fluid movie. If you want a well-lit scene at night grab a lamp and do some light designing .

Here are some tips for using a flash with the LomoKino:
Use a high-end flash product to achieve a short recharging time e.g. the Lomography Fritz the Blitz flash is able to recharge within a second at a 1/8 output mode.

Using the flash to make stop motion photos: take each frame one by one until your flash is recharged. There are a thousand different ways to take creative stop motion photos. Have fun!

the best thing ever! thank you!!!
raffaellainv · 2011-11-03 17:22
Woooooooow.....Great!
Past, present and future together in this new camera!
seamuslikesgold · 2011-11-03 17:36
So really, this is an expensive Supersampler with a crank. I really wanted a Super 8+ or something. It's so expensive just for 30 seconds of film. Damn.
pish · 2011-11-03 17:50
Proper cool, but I dont think its worth it for only 30 seconds a roll. Love it but I'm gunna sit on my hands to see if anything else comes out to accompany it.
vicuna · 2011-11-03 18:51
Amazing!!! A whole new world of endless creativity is now in the hands of every lomographer!!!
weedos · 2011-11-03 19:14
Wow!! Ordered :-)
sedgetone · 2011-11-03 20:18
@pheebs I meant if you wanted to view what you shot on the little analogue viewer you'd need a positive reel made of your negative; likewise if you wanted to run on a shuttered hand crank projector. I was wondering whether Fritz would be a good match as you can wind the output down, so thanks for the info. Thankfully I have some red heads with filters. Before I buy though I want a better scanning mask where I don't have to cut the neg. Thankfully with 3D printing services what I've put together looks like it will be printerable; if it works in practise then I'd buy.

I need one.
anafaro · 2011-11-03 21:41
lovely!
palkina · 2011-11-03 22:06
love it. need it. great thing!
pheebs · 2011-11-04 13:52
@sedgetone I tried it with the Digitaliza, and did not need to cut the negatives, but it is a little hard with film hanging about left and right ;)
pheebs · 2011-11-04 13:54
@sedgetone if you use slide film to begin with you have your positive alright after development :)
pheebs · 2011-11-04 14:01
@seamuslikesgold the LomoKino is much more than the super sampler, because you can choose the frame rate, you have control over the aperture, you can shoot close up, you can make a movie out of your photos... and the community will show us all the other things that can be done :)
jaz · 2011-11-05 10:10
cool :)
