LC - A Big Book from Lomography on Vimeo.
The Lomo LC-A Book is out. It’s been two years in the making, and along with the
help of thousands of images submitted by the Lomographic community this
book encapsulates over 25 years of LC-A history. Stuffed with more than
3,000 unique images shot with this unmistakable camera hailing from St.
Petersburg, the book traces the LOMO LC-A back to its roots.
Inside the Lomo LC-A Big Book
The LOMO LC-A
is where Lomography started! Our roots are with the LC-A and therefore
Lomographers have always had a unique affinity with the camera. The
creation of the book is largely thanks to the overwhelming response of
the Lomographic community to our 2006 LC-A online Rumble. An astounding
10,000 LC-A and LC-A+ images were submitted. A grand total of 3,000
images made the final cut, including an exclusive selection taken from
the Lomography Archive.
Over 664 pages you are taken on an awe-inspiring visual and historical journey following the fascinating fortunes of the LC-A compact camera. Discover the LOMO LC-A’s ancestry, the long struggle to keep its original Russian production going and ultimately how the camera was reborn as the LOMO LC-A+ in China. The LOMO LC-A book is an all-encompassing homage to possibly the most characteristic and inquisitive analogue camera on the planet.
