The Lomography Simple-Use Film Camera Darius Edition is a limited edition disposable camera from Lomography. It was introduced in July 2021. This edition was created in collaboration with Parisian producer and DJ Darius. The exterior of the black plastic camera is covered with a glittery foil.
Inside the camera is a roll of LomoChrome Metropolis 35mm. It provides very unusual images with a special aesthetic, but can be developed normally in the C-41 process. The number of images that fit on one roll is 36.
The disposable camera is equipped with a 31mm plastic lens. The lens is fixed and cannot be focused (1 meter to infinity). The shutter speed (1/120 s) and aperture (f/9) cannot be changed either. The dimensions of the disposable camera are 115 x 60 x 33 mm.
A built-in flash provides sufficient illumination. However, you should not be too far away from the subject. The flash has a charging time of fifteen seconds and is powered by an AA battery. For more creativity, there are three color filters for the flash.
When the roll is full, the film can be removed. If you want, you can then load the camera with a new roll of 35mm film, allowing you to use the camera more times.
The disposable camera can be developed in a photo lab or LomoLab. The color film is developed using the C-41 process. This process is offered by most photo labs. The camera can be sent to DM and Rossmann for development. Development with prints usually costs less than 5 Euros.
A manual for operation is not really needed. As with all disposable cameras, it is very easy to use. Therefore, the camera is good for weddings and parties to capture beautiful moments in memories.
