LoFi – Toy Camera II
-
Ah sure go then :-)
I thought I already posted that I’d toddle along….but I must have dreamt it…
So here it is…
and if I’m still dreaming..well..I’ll post somewhere around page 8 probably :-)
Ah Robbie. For a while I was worried you wouldn’t be coming, and we wouldn’t have a slightly crazed unofficial, official tour guide with a crazy American accent.
I’ll add you to the list.

ha! it better be funny~ :P
I am a bit concerned that my lo-fi camera won’t be ready in time… it’s hard to find the right size stone to carve the camera body. Might just go with the “salt dispenser” or the “cats eye” versions instead.

loo la… :D
Can’t wait to see what madness you show up with z…
OK count me in I’ve killed 2 birds with 1 stone…was looking for a fisheye lens, so just got lomo fisheye on ebay :shock:
Steve :wink:
can I propose a film limit for some members? (-> NFL)
otherwise PI will be invaded by stolen portraits of each lo-fier. and nothing to be proud of, I suspect.Im extremly confused and somwhat bewildered,This all sounds very interesting,but i havent a clue what anyone is talking about,(excuse ignorance).What i can make of it is your all going out on a field trip for the day,on a boat come car,or a walk through the market.You will all be wearing baseball caps?One chap is taking a plank?And by the sound of things your using plastic cameras of some sort.Im well behind with the jargon so some insight will help.What is a plank?why is a baseball cap a nessesity? A hand knitted what?..Lastly i can understand why these outings are so popular;It must be one fun mad day,out with a posse of total loopers.Being one myself im tempted to do one in the future.Thanks in advance. :D

And thank you for the offer Gigi, much appreciated-
but you might just need that Holga yourself…since I care about you, this will proably be in my bag for that day.
the name also will celebrate the Lisbon Treaty.
you can’t refuse it, mr7. it’s not a Holga, but it’s medium format.Wow, that’s really pretty-
and a meniscus lens, I had a look over on flickr,
and it seems really good-
not the Holga madness around the edges-
they must have it well stopped down .Anyone know what the lens in a Holga is?
bi-convex?
plano convex?Thanks for the offer Gigi, will be trying to run away with that one-
will definitely have a go-Oh, and snappit-
it’s just a lo-f thing-
pictures taken on almost anything, as long as there’s some kind of subversion going on-
dodgy lenses, toy cameras, home made, vintage-although Sinead will be around to clarify matters soon-
yes, the important thing is to act silly, look silly and pretend to have a rebel soul.
jb this camera is quite rare also in Italy, so I will have to chase you. maybe with the help of some hungarian gangster.

AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHA sorry if I’m quoting you and I’m smiling… it’s not for what you’ve said Snappit.
But it’s so funny to see how some one new, maybe just arrived on the forum, sees the PI members!!!!!!!!!
So:
” A bunch of crazy people [these ar emy words!] that go out on a field trip for the day,on a boat come car,or a walk through the market, wearing baseball caps, taking a plank [ but what’s a plank, for god’s sake???] and using plastic cameras of some sort.”It’s brilliant!
I propose this as official description for the Forum!
