Lomocams with St. Tropez style

If you're a lomography fan, or just looking for a super cool hostess gift for a friend who's generous with her beach house, this new camera is so neat.

Lomography chic: La Sardina Camera

 

The St. Tropez edition of the La Sardina Camera makes me feel elegant just trilling the r's in the name. It's got an 89-degree wide angle lens which is so fun for summer landscapes and packed cocktail parties on the lawn, and it's so easy to use, you can juggle settings and snap away while balancing a mojito in your other hand. That fabulous look comes from an exterior of upcycled stripey deck chair fabric, making each camera one-of-a-kind.

There's more info on the La Sardina microsite, including great Lomography tips and tricks like how to get x-pro or multiple exposure effects using real film. As in, not clicking that filter button on your Instagram app.
