Celebrating 30 years of Lomography – Celebrating freedom of photography. Analogue/film photographers rejoice, especially Lomographers around the world, the time is now to celebrate the freedom of photography with limited edition Lomo LC-A+, Lomo LC-Wide and Lomo LC-A 120 cameras from Lomography!

Exposing 30 Years of Lomography History and Heritage!

The story of Lomography began in November 1992, let’s start exposing 30 years of Lomography history and heritage! The fine Lomographic Society International was founded in the grand-old city of Vienna, Austria. There was a dignified “10 Golden Rules of Lomography”, it was published in the Wiener Zeitung – one of the oldest newspapers in the world(!) – and at the first venerable “everyone is an artist” LomoWall a couple of thousand Lomographs were shown.

It all began with the discovery of the quirky little Lomo LC-A camera by some unbrushed happy-go-luck students in Prague that had officially become the global Lomographic movement that we know of today. If you do your maths correctly from 1992, Lomography is now 30 years old and they are proud to be an eccentric, free, wonderful, enthusiastic, creative, experimental, social, wonderful Lomography Community, uniting millions of analogue admirers from around the world who are keen to help us keep film photography alive!

What is signature Lomography aesthetic feel from the LC-A family cameras like?

Since Lomographers stumbled upon the original Lomo LC-A in a quirky, old-school, modest camera shop and started shooting from the hop while touring Prague in 1991, they returned to Vienna and had a sh*tload of film developed in their favourite supermarket and discovered strangely beautiful images.

Over the past 30 years, Lomo LC-A photos are unique and distinct with its own signature Lomography aesthetic style, unmistakable photographs bursting with life, filled with deep saturation, punchy contrast and shadowy vignettes. Today, the Lomo LC-A family cameras are well-loved snap-shooting legends across the world.

With lightning-fast zone focusing, on-point automatic exposure, compact size, robust analogue looks and the all-important legendary lenses, the Lomo LC-A family cameras are a sought-after Lomography classic ready for all sorts of experimentation – a must-have in any photographer’s arsenal.
