Analog Project 2012 - January
I'm kicking off 2012 with another analog project. I'm adding a few toy cameras into the mix as well as simple point-n-shoot plastic cameras because they are loads of fun when using fancy lomo films. Last year I split the project in to two parts each month - a video walk around of the camera used then a video sideshow posted over on flickr featuring images shot with the camera. This year I'm grouping several images in with the video walk around and discontinuing the sideshow.
For the month of January 2012 I'm featuring the Lomography Sprocket Rocket. A 35mm toy camera designed to shoot sprocket hole photography. The camera has an all plastic build with a classic retro design that resembles the Falcon Miniature from the late 1930's. Equipped with a 30mm super wide angle lens the Sprocket rocket can capture a 106º field of view making it a pretty decent panoramic camera. This camera also has the ability of rolling back the film to previous frames to create double exposures. The Sprocket Rocket sells for around $90 but you can find in cheaper if you shop around.
