Straight from the "strange but true" file comes La Sardina, a new range of Lomography 35mm cameras inspired by, of all things, sardine cans! The four models in the lineup – El Capitan, Fischer’s Fritze, Sea Pride, and Marathon – feature wide-angle, 22mm, plastic lenses and use standard 135mm roll film.
El Capitan and Fischer’s Fritze are also equipped with Lomography’s most powerful flash, Fritz the Blitz, which includes three separate distance settings. The camera flash comes with yellow, red, and blue filters.
El Capitan and Fischer’s Fritze are expected to retail for $115, while the Sea Pride and Marathon models will retail for $65.
