Lomography Half-frame Simple Use Camera Melns&Balts

Lomography Half-frame Simple Use Camera Black & White – a compact and easy-to-use reusable analog camera that shoots in half-frame format on 35 mm film. The camera is preloaded with Lomography Lady Grey Black & White ISO 400 black-and-white film, so you can start shooting right away and capture 40 half-frame photos. The half-frame format allows two photos to fit in one standard 35 mm film frame, so you can get about twice as many frames from the same roll. The camera is not disposable – after shooting the included film, it can be loaded with another 35 mm film.
