Frozen in sharp clamshell carbonite for over 20 years, we cracked the sacred seal and now Jar Jar is free & hungry for emulsion once again! Amazing video. Had so much fun making this with all the homies!
I have a 6 lens passport camera that takes them individually, and it is set up for parties! Thanks for another super video, Ben! I, too, love my macro 5- what an awesome camera!
Came across your channel by accident, but I'm addicted to the content. I used to sell professional cameras about 13yrs ago and develop film, this brings back memories.
wow, using the passport camera to shoot 4 different pictures is genius! i see them for very cheap super often, this actually made me consider buying one of those =)
Lots of cool cameras! I just picked up the new 110 camera from Lomography and have shot my first roll of 110 film. Waiting to get the film back from the developer. Can’t wait to see the results.
What, no love for 126 cartridges? And flash cubes, one of the coolest inventions humanity has ever mass produced. That's it, my 10 year old self is done with you!
I am a HUGE fan of 110, I have stuff like a Velveeta simple camera as well as both Minolta models and the Pentax 110 ... thank the Lomo Gods for putting out 110 film!!! I just recently went all out and went Minox and Minolta 16mm ... love stuff that is difficult to develop!!! I only have one 16mm Jobo reel!!!
Great video, just want to say one thing though. I don't want to be 'that guy'; but the Gameboy Camera was in *no way* 'one of the first commercially released digital cameras'. The Gameboy Camera released in 1998 in Japan; but Apple had released the Quicktake in 1994 which is 4 years earlier and there was multiple other digital camera's dating all the way back to 1990. In fact, the history of Digital cameras is one of the most interesting and terrible stories in technology; steeped in conspiracy and greed. Where technology was purposefully stifled for nearly 30 years just so camera companies could keep selling you film. You could say that the GBC was one of the first digital camera's released for children but even SEGA beat Nintendo to the punch on that one, with the SEGA Digio SJ-1 in 1996 (LGR did a fantastic video on it if you are interested).
Gotta Pentax 110 Auto and I love it!! Have just about every lens in the system, so I have a good choice when it comes to what shots I can get. Only wish they made a macro lens for the system. Good thing is the whole lot is so tiny it doesn't take much to carry it around. Glad Lomo has kept 110 alive. I only hope the format gains more popularity.
I used to use a Polaroid passport camera to shoot fun pictures of my children when they were young - it reminds me of the opening credits of the Monkees TV show - pics still up on Polanoid site under my old valley-forge user name
Great episode guys! By any chance, does anybody have any recommendations on a repair place for the Minolta zoom 110? I have two of them that I would like to get serviced. That this place was as good as any to ask!
Instant Torture! I love my Macro 5, I take it out and hold it once in a while and shed a tear for Spectra film, my Onyx Spectra, Spectra AF, Pro Cam, SE, 1200FF, Minolta Instant Pro, Polaroid Color Shot printer, Spectra Law Enforcement Kit, Light Lock Close Up attachment, radio controlled remote, and not one but two creative filter kits. And there you are cavorting with Spectra film, that broken promise, that rebirth aborted. Woe is me. And I won't even begin my lamentations regarding pack film. In An Instant all your cameras will become paper weights.
