Our Lomographic deadstock scouts have some excellent news to report. Their intrepid efforts have yielded 100 units of one of the most rare and sought-after cameras in the world of Russian deadstock. Crafted in Belarus by the iconic BeLOMO factory, the Elikon camera is a true gem from the very top of high society.

From the sophisticated curves of its high-impact plastic body to the subtle radiance of its sought-after Minar lens, the Elikon just oozes out all that jazz. Elegant weather icons guide you to the proper aperture setting – and the Aperture Priority exposure then takes over to serve up the perfect shutter speed for every shot. How sweet it is!

Brilliant multicoated Minar 2 35/3.8 lens
Aperture Priority exposure with handy weather symbol guides
Standard flash hotshoe and speedy 1/500 top shutter speed
Lightweight and Soviet-style plastic body


 
   
 
 
   
   
   
  A true gentleman knows the importance of a first impression. As such, each Elikon is impeccably clad in its original Russian packaging and includes its original Cyrillic instruction manual. These classy beasts are brand new, and have only been opened for a quality check by our Lomographic technicians. As you peel open the box, you’ll be able to inhale the Elikon’s tantalizing bouquet of metal, lubricant, and old-school camera magic. Savor it my friend!

And by all means, do not dilly or dally for a single moment. Only 100 units of this precious camera are available, and once they are finished – then we’ll have to bid a respectful farewell to this smooth operator.


 
   
 
 
   
   
   
  Be sure to keep your elbows off the table and pass the food from left to right. When you dine with the Elikon, very strict table manners are in order. Here’s a few choice items that he especially likes. Offer him one of these gorgeous films, and exceptional results are heartily guaranteed!

AGFA CT PRECISA 100/36
When cross-processed, this old piano prefers blue notes to anything else, and will do anything to melodically play them into your image. Showing moderate grain and contrast, strong but not overpowering tones of blue, magenta, blue-green, and reddish-blue (see a trend here?) will impart an overall color-shift to your image.


 
   
 
 
   
  ROLLEI RETRO 400/36
A very special film designed to give the sharp tones and punchy contrast of classic black and white photography.

 
   
 
 
   
  AGFA PROPACK 200/24 + 3
Bold colors, great skin tones, and super-reliable performance means that Propack is quite possibly the best consumer-grade color negative film in the world. For real!

 
   
 
 
   
   
   
  A true dandy at heart, the Elikon is most comfortable when he’s dressed to the nines. And nothing shines up better than a smooth Lomographic shoulder bag. Carrying around the Elikon in one of these is a sure-fire path to chic sophistication.
