The Diana F+ Love Letters is a special edition of the legendary medium format camera. It was presented by Lomography in January 2013 together with the Diana Mini Love Letters.
The design of the plastic camera is mainly white, black and red. On the white background on the front and back of the camera, hearts and XOXO, a word from the net language, are printed in red. XOXO means hug and kiss.
The medium format camera is delivered together with the Diana F+ Flash in the matching color. In terms of functionality, this edition is of course identical to the normal Diana F+.
