Loco launches Kickstarter campaign for Lomo’Instant Automat
News

Lomography has introduced the new Lomo’Instant Automat, a new automatic point-and-shoot camera available via Kickstarter.

The Lomo’Instant Automat automatically adjusts the camera’s aperture, shutter speed and flash output so that all you need to do is point and shoot.

The new Lomo camera is a film camera and uses Fujifilm Instax Mini Film. It offers a  3-step zone-focusing system, as well as unlimited multiple exposures and long exposures up to 30secs long.

Its lens cap is a remote control for taking group self-portraits, and it comes with Close-up, Wide-Angle and Fisheye lens attachments, as well as four Color Gels.

A digital light counter keeps track of how many shots you have left.

The Lomo’Instant Automat is available in black, white, red leather or, if you back Lomography on Kickstarter, your own exclusive design.
