Nice.
Looks like its pretty pin sharp.
But why is this in alternative photography? Has film use died down so much? haha

hehe, yeah, but with a better and sharper lens.
i'd like to think the LCA was a cheaper version of the XA2 instead, but gosh, look at that ridiculous price. enjoy your xa2!

@ sheree, what film, or as some would say fleem, was used for the above shots?
And, no lah, imo the xa2 is really a whole design world ahead of any lomo cam. Yes yes, I'm biased.

haha yeah! anw XA2 now is sold at ridiculous prices too. i got mine off ebay for SGD 50 after watching around for abt 2 weeks! which is like 1/2 the price sporeans are selling.. haha..

may i know if any digital sharpening has been done? the image is tack sharp. some reviews stated that the XA has better lens than the rest of XAx series. would like to use this as reference.

i didnt do any sharpening.. but im not sure if the lab did anything. merely posted the photos straight from the cdrom i received.

haha.. im using XA2 and not XA.. didnt really hear abt XA having sharper lens.. all i know is XA is rf while XA2 is just like any pns film camera with zone focus.
