Lomography Fisheye One ($39.99) & Fisheye No. 2 35mm film camera ($79.00)
Fisheye-One
Ah, the famous Fisheye with its 170-degree barrel distortion! Some people might claim, “there’s an app for that”! But even they would have to admit that nothing beats the real deal.
The Fisheye One and Fisheye No. 2 probably are Lomography’s most popular cameras. The brand claims that both models are the only wide-angle 35mm camera that can capture 170-degree field of vision with its compact and easy-to-use design.
The All Black Fisheye One 35mm Camera from Lomography is a compact 35mm film camera that features a plastic 10mm fisheye lens with a fixed f/8 aperture for producing a distorted circular image on a rectangular frame. The 170° wide field of view of this camera, means that even when not using the built-in viewfinder you will easily be able to capture your subject on the 35mm film frame, allowing for more experimentation with your angles and shots.
Fisheye No. 2
The Fisheye One and Fisheye No. 2 are essentially the same, but the latter boasts of more features such as the “B” setting (for long exposures), a multiple exposure switch, a detachable fisheye viewfinder, and a standard hot shoe.
Considering the cost of a fisheye lens for a DSLR camera, Lomography’s $39.99 Fisheye One and $79.99 Fisheye No. 2 look like an inexpensive way to play with a fisheye and dabble in film again.
Fisheye One: from $39.99 on Amazon
Fisheye No. 2: from $79.00 on Amazon
