The definitive name for modern-day low-fi imaging, Lomography, has introduced two new limited editions of Lomography instant cameras inspired by two vastly different places.
The first camera, the Lomo’Instant Automat Glass Serengeti, is as the name implies, inspired by the Serengeti National Park. The textured brown leather design and golden embossed detailing are reminiscent of the sweeping plains and diverse flora and fauna of the wildlife haven in Tanzania.
Meanwhile, the Lomo’Instant Wide Monte Carlo is inspired by the iconic resort in Monaco. The refined black leather against the silver metallic design is reminiscent of the sophistication and grandeur of the world-famous location.
Beyond the individual cosmetic differences, the Lomo’Instant Automat Glass and Wide are identical to the stock counterpart, and whatever edition there has been. Keep going for a quick rundown of the specifications of each camera if you need a refresher.
