THE LONG-LOST ICONIC 4B-1 CAMERA RETURNS   THE GORGEOUS RED / GOLD LIMITED SEAGULL IS BACK TOO!   AND YES, WE HAVE THE STRAIGHT-SHOOTING 4A-107 & 109   SEE THE EXCLUSIVE 4B-1 VS. HOLGA CONEY ISLAND GALLERY       The long-lost crown prince of Chinese TLR cameras has been resurrected! Based on a mid 1960’s design, this medium format masterpiece went out of production over two years ago. But after much sweat and toil, we’ve contracted with the Shanghai Seagull factory to reproduce their iconic 4B-1! Like the other cameras you see here, it has a brilliant multicoated Haiou lens, ground-glass top viewer, and handmade old-school charm. It also shoots absolutely stunning and huge medium-format frames. But it differs in its simplicity. Like the Holga, you can easily fire as many times as you like on the same frame. You can also change format (shoot 12 or 16 frames on a 120 roll) and shoot partial frames for awesome overlapping semi-panoramics. This is a classic piece of hardware, and stocks are limited! -- Tack-sharp 3-element Haiou 75/3.5 lens -- Uncoupled advance & shutter for easy multiple & partial exposures -- Variable 12 or 16 shot 120 format -- Huge negatives for brilliant prints overflowing with detail -- Ground glass top-down viewer, full manual controls -- 50 pieces available shop.lomography.com/go/?where=shop&pro=sea shop.lomography.com/seagull           Another old favorite is back again! Based on the royal red and gold colors of traditional Chinese royalty, the Limited Edition 4A-107 is simply one of the most stunning mechanical cameras ever produced! And this guy isn’t just another pretty face – there’s a glowing 4-element Haiou lens, an auto-advance crank, a multi-exposure override button, and a host of other awesome features to behold. -- Jazzy 3-element Haiou 75/3.5 lens -- Limited edition and dangerously glitzy Red & Gold color scheme -- Auto-crank advance, full manual controls -- 25 pieces available shop.lomography.com/go/?where=shop&pro=se2 shop.lomography.com/seagull           If you’re on the lookout for a solid medium format twin-lens-reflex camera that’s capable of knock-you-flat-out-cold images, then we’ve got two black beauties for your consideration. On the one side is the 4A-107, which steps up the 4B-1’s functionality with an automatic crank advance – so you can capture frames quickly and neatly. On the other end is the 4A-109, otherwise known as the “King of the Seagulls.” It offers the best optics of the bunch (premium 4-element glass) and a handy aperture and shutter status window that allows you to view your settings while composing the image. Both of these are true class acts! 4A-107 -- Tack-sharp 3-element Haiou 75/3.5 lens -- Multiple exposure override, flash hot-shoe -- Auto-crank advance, full manual controls -- 50 pieces available 4A-109 -- Premium 4-element Haiou 75/3.5 lens -- Rolleiflex-style aperture & shutter setting viewer -- Auto-crank advance, full manual controls -- 25 pieces available shop.lomography.com/go/?where=shop&pro=sea shop.lomography.com/seagull           It’s been quite a few years since we’ve test driven a pristine new Seagull 4B-1 camera. Too long, in fact! So, what better place to put that class Haiou glass through its paces then on the always-colorful and wonderfully winter desolate Coney Island boardwalk. Liad Cohen joined us for the shoot, and brought along his mighty Holga. See our exclusive online gallery of this sunkissed November day. www.lomography.com/seagull.vs.holga           When your Seagull is starving and screaming for food, nothing can satisfy it as fully as a choice cut from Lomography’s 120 film breadbasket. Our assortment is hand-selected and guaranteed to deliver absolutely slamming shots. We’re talking vivid colors, sublime black & whites, and crazy slides (great for straight or cross-processing!) 120 Color Negative 120 Black and White 120 Slide shop.lomography.com/shop/index_shop.php?cat=Films           unsubscribe | change format | www.lomography.com Do not reply to this email!
