Lomography Colorsplash 35MM Camera

Average rating: Stars

wonderfully unique

the colorsplash is totally unique. its compact and easy to use and is just what i was looking for. with 12 colorgels, the sky is the limit. you can mix colors on the flash, split colors, whatever. then, to add to things, you can use a gel and put it on the lens and use a color flash to truly paint your world in a way you would have never seen. plus the long exposure makes wild and streaky and super cool pictures. very artsy, tres cool. in conclusion...:highly recommended.

perfect for poseurs

Two quiet revolutions in photography--the Lomo and Diana/Holga--added a new level on how artists view their work. Unfortunately, so many seem to think that by simple buying and using these devices, they will make instant art. Now a whole slew of cheap hunks of plastic sold at inflated prices are flooding the market, feasting upon this followers mentality.

If you really want to experiment with color-flashing, buy color filters (or scavenge for random tinted transparent materials) and experiment on the flash of a decent camera--or if you are into plastic, then get a holga. This process will not only teach you so much more about what processes produce what effects, but you'll actually create something new, you'll be using a creative process. This thing is not a creative tool, it is an unimaginative $3 hunk of plastic being cleverly marketed and sold for an astonishing price that sucks any creative possibilities out of the user.

Color Your World

The Color Splash is like photographic rock and roll. I love the long-exposure with colored-flash style - it's really cool. You end up with a bright, colored subject against a glowing background. If you wave the camera around with the shutter open, you can place these crazy streaks of light behind your subject as well. There's no other camera that can do this, and its white body is dead sexy.

As another reviewer mentioned, a tripod thread would be nice, (Lomo, can you hear me??) but I can live without it for the time being. Be sure to use 400 or 800 speed film - that way you'll maximize your flash range. Also, get close when you use the purple or red filters, they block a lot of light and your shot can be really underexposed if you're too far away.
