Did you know it's possible to shoot pinhole LomoKino movies? Just read on to find out how!

In our previous article we've explained the internal software we are using for turning scans into LomoKino movies. But this script currently only runs on Windows – we thought maybe someone in the community is interested in porting this script to another system or writing an own version of it.

So how did we scan and create all those movies you've already seen, you wonder? Mandi, who works in our archive and tests all our cameras, wrote a little program for himself to speed up the process. We wanted to share this with you, explain how it works, and ask you to improve on it or port it to other platforms.

Lightpainting is great fun and easy if you follow some guidelines, here is a quick how-to.

Great news! Remember we started a big book on the Lomo LC-A a while back?? Well it's ready! Sort of... Nearly, although not quite... Almost

Alberner Hafen is located at the river Danube, at the south-east border of Vienna. This small port of trans-shipment was built around 1940 to ship crop from Eastern Europe. Somehow the plans didn't work out and the port remained non significant....
