Photography is something that I have always wanted to venture into, but never did because I was afraid. The fear that I would embarrass myself with the lack of technical skills and what photographers call \u201cThe Eye\u201d stopped me for years. However, ever since I entered university, there were a few modules that I have taken that taught me about design work. That was when I properly came into contact with photography.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Laying hands on Lomography\u2019s Lomo\u2019Instat Automat Glass, I was initially afraid to even unbox it. How do I review a polaroid camera when I am not even good at taking photos? I was afraid that I wouldn\u2019t do a good job – I am not exactly the most familiar with film cameras.<\/span><\/p>\n As I slowly unboxed the camera, I came across this small pamphlet that introduced the camera. The pamphlet briefly mentioned the camera\u2019s functions and explained what Lomography really is, \u201cLomography stands for a freer and louder style of shooting – closer to life itself.\u201d. Reading the 10 golden rules of Lomography, I came across one that really #shook me:<\/span><\/p>\n #6 Don\u2019t think (by William Firebrace).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Amidst all the worrying about technical skills, this camera reminded me that as much as photography requires technical skills, it is a form of art as well. And art requires you to let loose and have fun. That was exactly what I did with this new Lomo camera!<\/span><\/p>\n The camera is equipped with a multi-coated 38mm wide-angle glass lens and comes with 2 extra lenses: the Splitzer and the Close-Up-Lens. It even comes with a remote control that allows you to take polaroids from afar – How convenient! Some other add-ons include colored-gel filters, a standard \u00bc\u201d tripod thread and materials to display those beautiful shots.<\/span><\/p>\n For a polaroid camera, the Lomo\u2019Instat Automat Glass impressed me with its maximum aperture of f\/4.5, shooting beautifully even in low-light situations. What\u2019s more, its razor-sharp focus works on anything from 0.3m for absolutely stunning shots.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In addition to its fully automatic settings, this camera is also equipped with a variety of creative features that allows spontaneous snapshots, experimental light paintings, and multiple exposures. This new Lomo camera really empowered me to take more daring shots without a second thought, because every photo taken gives an exciting result. It allowed me to experiment and be comfortable with trying new features without fear.<\/span> What makes this experience even better is that I can finally take polaroids without a cameraman. This makes capturing memories on a solo travel, a date, and even group gatherings so much easier. Even selfies are made easier with the Self-Portrait Mirror on the top left of the camera!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Thank you Lomography for sending this over, and opening my eyes to new possibilities with your new camera.
