Through My Lens : Lomography of Outdoors and Scenery
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOMO LC-A
The LOMO LC-A (Lomo Kompakt Automat) is a fixed lens, 35 mm film, leaf shutter, zone focus, compact camera introduced in 1984. The design is based on the Cosina CX-2.
In 2005, production of the original Lomo LC-A was discontinued. Its replacement, the LC-A+, was introduced in Fall 2006. While production moved to China , the LC-A+ featured the original LC-A lens manufactured by LOMO PLC in Russia. This changed in 2007, with lenses on all models since being made in China as well.
Some LC-As were sold badged as Zenith, this label was only a sticker underneath the lens. Zenit (Zenith in some countries) is a trademark of KMZ (Krasnogorsk Mechanical Works).
The characteristics of Lomo photographs are oversaturated colors, extreme optical distortions, rainbow-colored subjects, off-kilter exposure, blurring and alternative film processing, all things usually considered bad in photography. In short, Lomography is the act of taking photographs without thinking, and ignoring the established rules of "good" photography.
