AlessiaParticipant
I could buy a Lubitel for 31 pounds… the price is interesting but I don’t know very much about this camera??? Some of you, LoFi gurus can give me some info/suggestion?? :)
Thanks
a.nfl-fanParticipantaoluain has one and seems to enjoy it…

£31… not going to break the bank I suspect… I’d go for it.

AlessiaParticipantok, too late…. the offer was for a limited time only, so I bought it!
Now I hope no one shows up saying… it’s a cra##y camera…. :D
Anyway.. I should have it for the 17th yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!AlessiaParticipantnfl-fan wrote:

In fact I did!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks John!
a.GizzoParticipantAlessiaParticipantyes, of course, but I meant crappy crappy….
I try to explain:
LoFi crappy= good
crappy crappy= not goodSeoirseMemberAlessia,
Congrtulations on your purchase.
You won’t be disappointed!
I owned a Lubitel for over 20 years (it is with Mark admin now)
and it provided me with really good images.
In fact I would dispute the ‘lo-fi’ moniker
when referring to this camera.
Basic it may be, but lo-fi most definitely not.
Enjoy it. :)
AlessiaParticipantEheh, Thanks George!
I’ve read your old posts about the Lubitel!!!!
Also if mine is a Lubitel 2 and the one you were speaking about, the aoluain’s one, if I do not get wrong is a 166b. Honestly I don’t know the difference yet… I’m trying to gather some info on the web right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I’m so excited… :D
amydancesParticipanti too have a Lubitel 166B…this is an amazing camera, the colours will knock your socks off!
AlessiaParticipantthanks Amy, as I said, mine is a Lubitel 2, I don’t know which is the difference though….

I have a Lubitel 166 which I’m ashamed to say hasn’t seen daylight for almost a year. Its a quite a good camera though. Compared to a Holga, it’s a bit of a luxury with all the shutter speeds and apertures. Here’s a print from the last time I used it.
Hi Fizz, you know what??
you should brush up on your Lubitel… film photography is very funny, I can also advise you about a good develop and print teacher… a HUGE one, I’d say!MarkKeymasterI have Seoirse’s Lubitel 2. Lovely camera, good quality, must use it a bit more.
Its definitely not a LoFi camera though :)
Where you have a camera with shutter and aperture control its not considered Lofi to be honest.
Not imho anyhow.If you want LoFi, I came across a Holga for <€19 incl p+p on ebay.
I’m actually thinking of getting one from them myselfhttp://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110373733675&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
AlessiaParticipantThanks for the reply Mark… I’ve got a Holga indeed and it’s very funny to use and now that Nfl Fan showed me how to use it “properly” will be even funnier!!!!!!!
