Lomographers Revive Diana

Posted in October 18th, 2007
Published in Digital, Photo Tips

The Lomographic Society has revived the Diana, an all-plastic medium-format camera that had its heyday in the 1960s and В‘70s, and later achieved legendary status among many creative photographers for the atmospheric images it captured. The new Diana Plus is a faithful recreation of the original, with the addition of just a few features. Its boxy black and light-blue body backs up a plastic, single-element 75mm lens and a non-TTL optical viewfinder.

The Diana Plus retains the simplicity of its forebear, with a choice of Normal and Bulb shutter settings, three selectable apertures, and manual focus control. New to the twenty-first-century Diana are a shutter lock for long exposures, a standard tripod mount, and a panorama mode for shooting a seamless series of images the length of a roll of 120 film. Another alteration is the ability to remove the lens, which allows photographers to use the Diana Plus as a pinhole camera at its smallest aperture setting.
