Last week I stumbled across the golden Half camera, I'm so in love with it Ive already blogged about it here and here, I'm telling you people if we are talking lo-fi photography here and Disposable cameras are the new Polaroid then the Golden Half is the new Holga!For a plastic camera they are pretty bloody pricey though... AU$115, but turn that frown upside down my friends, Ive been researching my butt off the last few days and found a wholesale distributor and plan on buying some in bulk in the coming months and will set up a online store on my website here! And i promise they'll be alot cheaper than AU$155 big ones!
Just looking at the shots above found here on this Flickr pool me thinks a light weight camera like this would be amazing for travel. A 36 roll of 35mm film gets you 72 shots! Just imagine your hanging around Pyramids for the day in down town Cairo, you take a close up detail shot and a contrasting landscape shot and POW two super rad compositions on the one 4x7 frame!
