Default Lomography Users Singapore

Hiya guys and gals out there,

I started using the lomo series of cameras recently again for a change and have been looking around to see if there was a user group around, unfortunately I could not find any where users can come together discuss and share tips and techniques and MOST IMPORTANTLY, have fun! Hence I thought of starting this thread.

I used the actionsampler quite some time ago and did really like the effects it gave me hence I did not go on and find out more information about this "cult" and its followers.

However, while corresponding with a couple of people the last few months, I came in contact with the lomo horizon and fisheye family of cameras and, gosh, they were fun and easy to use. (some kind souls loan-ed me a set or 2 to have a go at it) Nevertheless, when I had a problem, i had not many ppl to turn to for advise.

I am also currently trying to discuss with the lomographic society to see if we can offer more activities and events. Will post any updates once something have been worked out.

Waiting for some news from lomo asia now as they are shifting office hence are a little slow in replying to emails.

I am thinking of proposing a meet-up for some chit-chat or a casual shoot. I can bring some of the newer lomos like that fisheye 2 or the horizon for all to test out or if I can get the lomo society to sponsor something.

Comon lomographers, come in and share your experiences!
