Lomography Half-frame Simple Use Camera Black&White

All about the product

Lomography Half-frame Simple Use Camera Black & White – a compact and user-friendly reusable analog camera that shoots in 35 mm film in a half-frame format. The camera comes pre-loaded with Lomography Lady Grey Black & White ISO 400 film, allowing you to start taking pictures immediately and capture 40 half-frame images. The half-frame format allows you to fit two pictures on a single standard 35 mm film frame, effectively doubling the number of shots you can obtain from the same roll. The camera is not a single-use model – once the included film is used up, it can be reloaded with another 35 mm film.
