The Lomomatic 110 Ladybug is a compact pocket film camera from the manufacturer Lomography. It was introduced in September 2026. The "Ladybug" version features a red-black body with a polka dot pattern. The design is based on a sliding mechanism that protects the body when closed and reveals the controls when opened.
Camera Features
The lens is fixed in the body and cannot be changed. It is a multi-coated glass lens with the designation "Minitar CX 23mm f/2.8". Relative to the image format of approximately 13 × 17 mm, the focal length of 23 mm corresponds roughly to a standard lens.
There is no autofocus; focusing is done manually via a four-step zone focus slider with settings of 0.8 m, 1.5 m, 3 m, and infinity. The minimum focusing distance is 80 cm.
A built-in light meter automatically controls the shutter speed in the range from 1/250 second to 30 seconds. The aperture can be manually selected between two values: f/5.6 ("Day") and f/2.8 ("Night"). A selector switch allows adjusting the film speed to ISO 100, 200, or 400.
For long exposures, the camera offers a bulb mode (B), where the shutter can remain open for up to 30 seconds. Additionally, an MX switch is integrated, enabling multiple exposures on a single frame.
The system features a detachable flash unit that mounts on the side of the camera body. It offers settings for day and night shots as well as the option to turn the flash off. For colored lighting, interchangeable color filters are included with the flash. Power for the camera electronics and the flash is supplied by a single CR2 lithium battery (eBay / Amazon*). A tripod thread or cable release connection is not available.
Film transport and shutter cocking are entirely manual: by pushing the camera body together and pulling it apart, the film advances by one frame. A window on the back of the body shows the current frame number of the film.
Films for the Lomomatic 110 Ladybug
The camera uses 110 pocket film cartridges. These are pre-loaded into the body without the need to manually thread the film. Available films include color negative films such as Lomography Color Tiger 110 (ISO 200) as well as black-and-white films like Lomography Orca 110 (ISO 100).
The color films are processed in the standardized C-41 development process. Many photo labs and collection points in drugstores and specialty stores offer development and scanning of the 110 format. Black-and-white films are developed using the classic chemical black-and-white process.
