• Kodak Ektachrome 320T - A Survivor

  
  There was a range of ultra-low iso slidefilms for artificial Tungsten light from Kodak that delivers all kinds of color-nuances and shades. These films were quite durable and stable, so they were actually quite suitable for many kinds of weather conditions and photojournalists, that always had to be sure that they can deliver results whenever it's needed. One of my favourites in this row must be the Kodak Ektachrome 320ET - a true survivor.

• Lomography Redscale 100 ISO 120: A Very Tolerant Film

  
  It seems like it was a very long time ago, but it has only been 3 months since I first got my hands on a true Lomo-camera, a gorgeous Black Jack Diana F+. Having browsed the Lomography site quite a bit, I had seen a lot of beautiful redscale shots, and I decided that the Lomography Redscale 100 ISO was going to be my first film. This is a very easygoing film that turned out to be a good choice for a newbie like me.

• LC-A Instant Back+: The Instant Joy from LC-A+

• Ilford Dia 200 - Singing the Blues

  
  Once I laid eyes on that offer on eBay I was instantly stunned. There was a slide film of Ilford. The British film producer came out with their own branded color transparencies? I made sure to win the bunch and tried the Ilford Dia 200 myself. One of the reasons I liked it is because it used the German name for slidefilm: Dia.

• Scotch Super Chrome 100 - Repeating History

  
  The history of film production must be as confusing and incestuous as the web of royal relationships of the European kingdoms in the 17th century up to the 19th. Back in the days, a German noble becomes the Russian Czaress, French lords became kings of Spain, and even the Danish were ruling all of Scandinavia. A marriage here, a war elsewhere, a coup d'etat everywhere - such a mess. Nothing was like it seemed and you could never trust what you were told. And with the Scotch Super Chrome 100 it’s history repeating itself.

• Lomography Color Negative 800: Hit and Miss

  
  Overall, the Lomography Color Negative 800 is a good film. Overall. You won't get the colors of X-pro or the Sunset Strip, but still, that is not the reason why you should use the CN 800.

• Instant Joy with the Fuji Instax 210 Camera

  
  When I was a child I won a Polaroid camera in a contest about road-safety education, but I have not been able to find it at home. Last year my father asked me about the Polaroid camera, because he wanted one of those "fast cameras"... So I bought him the Fuji Instax 210

• Spin Out into Open Water: A Review of the Lomography Spinner 360

  
  The Spinner 360 is a great camera for capturing friends all in one circle. It's a moment in time, a chance to see everyone together. But the 360 is also excellent if you're lucky enough to live near a shore. Here's how it fairs as a friend/recorder on the shores of Lake Superior

• Lomopedia: Lubitel

  
  The name “Lubitel” roughly translates to “Amateur” . Like the Komsomolets, it was produced in Bakelite. And just for kicks – a Chinese copy of this original Lubitel emerged in 1961 under the mysteriously hilarious name, “Changle.” .

• Lomography Redscale 120 ISO 100: Seeing Red (In a Good Way)

  
  It's not a monochrome film. It's not really a full colour spectrum film. The wonderfully unique Lomography Redscale 120 ISO 100 is in a class by itself.
