The Diana F+ Nightcap is a medium format camera. This camera is a special edition of the Diana F+ from Lomography. It was sold exclusively at Urban Outfitters. Urban Outfitters mainly sells clothing. The design of the camera is simple black and gold.
The plastic camera is equipped with a port for the Diana F+ Flash and has a thread for a tripod.
The functions of the Diana F+ Nightcap are of course identical to the normal Diana F+. Normally, you need normal medium format film for the LoFi camera. Whether this is redscale, slide, color or black-and-white film is irrelevant. A sensitivity of ISO 400 is advantageous in bad weather and poor lighting conditions.
