The Lomography Simple-Use Film Camera Lomochrome Turquoise Edition is an edition of the disposable camera by Lomography. It was introduced to the public in early 2023.
The camera contains a roll of Lomography Lomochrome Turquoise. The pictures with the film are characterised by warm colour tones from emerald green, blue tones to golden gradients. Approximately 36 pictures fit on one roll.
The disposable camera is a practical and affordable option for capturing memories of special events and occasions. It is equipped with a fixed 31 mm plastic lens that cannot be adjusted or focused and offers a focus range of 1 metre to infinity. The aperture is fixed at f/9 and the shutter speed at 1/120 sec, so the camera is easy to use and the user does not have to worry about technical settings.
The built-in flash is a great feature, providing sufficient illumination in dark environments and ensuring that images are well exposed and sharp. However, it is recommended not to get too far away from the subject as the flash has a fifteen second recharge time, which can result in missed shots. The flash also has three colour filters that allow the user to experiment with creative lighting effects and add a personal touch to their images.
After taking a series of photos, the disposable camera can be developed using the C-41 process, a standard procedure offered by most photo labs. The camera can be taken to local retailers such as DM and Rossmann for development, and the cost of development with prints is usually less than 5 euros.
In terms of dimensions, the disposable camera is compact and easy to carry, measuring 115 x 60 x 33 mm. The manual provided is clear and offers helpful guidance for beginners, although operating the camera is incredibly simple and straightforward. It is the ideal choice for novice photographers and anyone looking for a straightforward way to capture life’s precious moments. Whether you’re attending a wedding or a party, the disposable camera offers a fun and affordable way to capture the special moments you share with your loved ones.
