It looks and feels premium, and it comes with three lens attachments to let you be more creative.
Image quality is great with faithful color reproduction, and the camera is very easy to use too.
If an artists aesthetics and vibes were an instant camera, they would be the Lomography LomoInstant Automat.
Not only does the LomoInstant Automat look stunning, it takes lovely photos on Instax mini film too.
You also get three lens attachments (fisheye, close-up and wide-angle) to get really creative.
Any shot you want, youve got it.
And the long battery life is the cherry on top of the cake.
To find out more about one of thebest instant cameras, read my full Lomography LomoInstant Automat review.
The camera comes with three lens attachments, so its more niche than most other instant cameras.
I appreciate how Lomography is celebrating artists with these designs it makes the camera feel even more special.
I could gush about the LomoInstant Automats design all day, but lets move on to the build quality.
The build feels premium thanks to the high-quality plastics used.
The lightweight body also meant that I could comfortably hold the camera in one or both hands.
The built-in lens has three focus zones: infinity, 0.6m and 1-2m.
These options make the camera great for landscapes, portraits and any other shot you desire.
You should be able to shoot in bright environments comfortably but the aperture wont suffice in low-light conditions.
The LomoInstant Automats optical viewfinder (OVF) is offset from the lens and its very small.
I wear prescription glasses and struggled to look through the OVF comfortably.
Theres no button to power it up.
I love the controls around the lens as they make instant photography more tactile and fun.
This mirror also doubles as the shutter release button.
I really like this feature as it negates the possibility of you switching it off by mistake.
All other buttons are located at the back of the camera, next to the film door.
These include: flash, multiple exposure, EV compensation, and automatic or bulb mode.
If you want to slow the shutter speed down to 30s for long exposures, switch to bulb mode.
Attaching any of the three included lens attachments is easy too.
All you oughta do is screw them onto the fitted lens.
I found this easy to do but in case youre struggling,heres a handy tutorialfrom Lomography itself.
The river looks lovely too.
The LomoInstant Automat has captured the gloomy vibe really well.
I also like how bright my coworkers pink hair looks a testament to how good color reproduction is.
The photos above were captured with the wide-angle lens attachment.
The selfie I took was also shot with the wide-angle lens attachment and I love it.
Lomography claims two batteries should be enough for 100 shots, depending on the usage conditions.
It takes detailed photos and its three lens attachments give you more creative freedom.
Its got a long battery life, and the overall image and print quality is excellent.
The LomoInstant Automat has become my favorite analog instant camera.
