The instant camera craze doesn’t seem to be dying out anytime soon. From Lomography’s new disposable “Simple Use Film Camera” to Fujifilm’s digital/instant hybrid SQ SQUARE 10, there are just so many choices for shutterbugs to choose from these days.
Lomography however is taking things a step further by revamping an old favourite – the one and only Lomo’Instant Automat. This classic photo-taking device, which made its debut a year ago, will be returning in a brand new lime green colourway that’s inspired by the volcanic coasts of Africa. It’ll be called the Automat Cabo Verde.
Sadly, that’s where the good stuff stops. Besides a funky new tropical design, there’s nothing really new to look forward to over here.
In terms of features, the Automat Cabo Verde is pretty much the same as the other Automat cameras – namely, the Magellan and the South Beach. It has a fully automatic shutter mode, a three-step zone-focusing system, and a range of quirky Colour Gel flash filters to play with.
Check out some sample photos below:
Not that Lomography fans would care anyway. This camera is as pretty as it gets, and the Automat is after all a great automatic camera that makes instant photography incredibly easy, especially for users who are new to film.
Right now, a single package of the Automat Cabo Verde is retailing for $235, but you can score the lens combo package for $275. Both packages are available at Lomography’s website.
