Oh I don't have a problem with those nudes Pete. They are very nice. I just didn't want our "sensitive" members to chim in and... well you know.

I'm interested in hearing about your Edun body caps. Is that the only thing you have, just the body cap? Or did you also get the various aperture sheets? I just converted a regular Nikon body cap. I used a hot needle to poke a hole through it. I have also built my own pinhole film cameras.

Only the pin cap so far, I just wanted to get the best possible quality, I might try other pinhole ideas like the long sun light exposure, the cap is well made and is sealed against dust getting into your camera. I will make a post when I have something to post from it

Sorry forgot that part, they where not pornographic nude and not sharp either from the fact they are by pinhole lenses.

None of my pictures are worth posting them, but I will when I get it figured out, you know just like the LOMO lens, you have to take the right kind of picture, to get the right kind of effect, actually that link I gave you did have some great pictures

Pete

Let's give a warning that your link includes nudes bmxdad. That way adamz will hurry and click it and Willis won't while he's at work :^) Do you have any samples taken with your set up?

I'm sure the LOMO adapter could easily be "converted" to be used as a pinhole. (no not that kind of hole exit here!)

I'm not sure which LOMO lens yet. The Fmount isn't in stock, but am told it will be soon. I'll let you guys know what I get.

Strange you bring this up bmxdad because I'm in the process of getting the adapter to try it out. When I receive one I plan to share my experience with everyone. Do you have a link to the 5D LOMO samples bmxdad? I know the F+ adapter is already available for the canon mount. Nikon's Fmount should be shipping out very soon.

The LOMO lenses are actually for medium format so for an APS-C sensor they are pretty long focal lengths. For example the super wide 38mm lens is really 115mm on a D300 and the 110mm gives you a whopping 320mm!

In the mean time the LOMOgraphy gallery page has been updated with sample photos using the adapters. Scroll down to the very bottom for the 5 SLR galleries.

Hi Niko, If you read this did you ever get to know more about this lens system, anywhere you look it is odd to purchase, like you can buy the F adapter but you are buying lenses that are shipped with pieces for their camera, also how would they actual work on a cropped APS-C camera like my D300 it is kind of like my pin hole lens/cap for my camera, you see great pictures on larger format, but I have seen some neat pictures taken on FF camera (sorry 5D)

Hi Admin: anything new from your dealings with this system

Thanks Pete

Excited to see if we can get some on NR. Anyone seen any other results from them?

No I have not, I have only seen the Information on DpReview about the product, but that is all

Photo challenges are tough - I certainly don't want to be the judge, it must be a third party and this is hard to organize.

I just wanted to have a fun challenge with the Lomography, just to give who wants to a chance to learn to use the Lomography lens system, I for one am not sure how to make the most out of using it. I would love to try it and it would be great to get help from other NR's that are trying it out also

I may get a coupon/discount for everyone to use. Still working on it.

You know IF they were to be real kind to us, lets have a Lomography photo challenge for every one going to get the F-Adapter Lens combo, We could all help each other figuring out how to get the most out of this new(old) way of taking pictures.

So Admin pull you magic power and make them want to have us using their product

Pete

Thanks admin!

Wink, Wink :^)

Hey that's a great idea bmxdad. A group discount or something. They could even use us as a commercial or something.
You know,"We gave a group of Nikon enthusiast Diana F+ adapters and this is how they saw the world..."

I like it sign me up :^)

I am currently talking to Lomography for a giveaway on the NikonRumors blog. It will probably be the F-mount adapter and a set of lenses.

Great Idea, could you maybe get a deal from them if a few NR's wanted to get them

Pete

I am currently talking to Lomography for a giveaway on the NikonRumors blog. It will probably be the F-mount adapter and a set of lenses.

This is what I'm referring to:

Not sure if BH just has the wrong photo with the wrong item but this adapter was just announced a few days ago.

That's not the right kind of adapter spastikmonkii. That actually looks like a lens baby attachment?

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/653872-REG/Lomography_590_LOMO_DIANA_F_LENS.html/BI/2446/KBID/3285

Not the F+ adapters, at least not yet.

So this topic and watching reruns of MacGyver and the A-Team have inspired me to take apart an actual toy camera and create something similar to the plastic lomo lenses. I'll post some pictures if I like anything that "develops"

I'm pretty sure B&H stocks them

Yeah the 55mm might be a better deal because it also comes with a close-up lens. I like the vignetting from the 110mm but the lens field of view would be very narrow. The 55mm might be the best compromise between the 110 and 38mm.

I'll wait until Amazon, BH or Adorama have the F+ adapter in stock for Nikon. You guys are tempting me to buy them now though!
