Aww, Look at This New Little Lomo Fisheye Baby Camera

New cute camera alert! Yesterday in New York, Lomography—purveyor of vintage film cameras and creator of new, plastic ones—unveiled a secret product. It's secret no longer, and the project they kept under wraps is the Lomo Fisheye Baby 110, a miniature version of their popular Fisheye camera, just pocket- and travel-sized.

We're big fans of Lomography here at Jaunted, and as frequent users of three of their cameras (the LC-A+, La Sardina and Diana Mini), we can vouch for their awesomeness when it comes to shaking up your usual travel photography routine. Leave the DSLR behind for a moment, bring a backup roll of real film and walk down some alleys—you'll quickly understand our love of good ol' analog.

In fact, it's our few years of pocketing our Diana Mini (a tiny version of their regular Diana camera) that makes us want to talk about the Fisheye Baby, because we think the small snappers are really the future of Lomography, now that everyone can pocket their smartphone cameras.

Virginia is for Lovers and Lomographers: Win a Trip with a Single Photo

Raise your hand if you occasionally get a little nostalgic for actual film cameras and the days of tangible prints. See, that's the thing about the internet though, is we can't see you raising your hand or physically join in because while we love us some iPhoneography and DSLR fun, every so often we're still reaching for our throwback Lomography camera. And apparently so is the entire state of Virginia, since their freshest tourism endeavor involves pitting real photos from Lomo cameras against each other for chances to win all-expenses-paid, experiential trips to the state that is famously "for Lovers."

Contest

Here's the deal: the Lomographic Society has turned out a "Virginia is for Lovers" special edition of their newish 35mm La Sardina camera, and to celebrate, anyone with a Lomo camera is welcome to submit a photo to the contests to win a Virginia trip. There'll be a contest every month, starting now through December 2012, and each has a specific theme for your photo. Right now, it's "Love Surrounds: Show us the people that mean the most to you."
