Does anyone know if its possable to use Lomographic film with a normal film SLR?


I would like to see if I can get the same affects out of lomo film with my film SLR. I dont see the point in buying a lomo camera when I have many expencive SLR's. I just want to know if anyone has tryed this before.

Yes you can ... if your Lomographic camera uses 120 film then any medium format SLR uses that film (Hasselblad, Mamiya, etc) and of course if your Lomographic camera is converted to 35mm, any 35mm SLR will shoot it.

Of course all this stands to reason. Any camera that uses 120 will use 120 film and the same for 35mm ... a universal truth.

You will NOT get the same effects you would get using a Lomographic camera. The reason is your SLR camera has a real lens, not a plastic one. It also can focus, the Lomographic camera's are fixed focus at about 2 meters (6 feet) and your SLR camera has totally adjustable f/stops and shutter speeds. The Lomographic camera has only a few. You would have to work very hard to duplicate the poor quality images from Lomographic camera's, especially the typical vignetting.
