Big international Lomographic art projects and exhibitions

A line of dedicated Lomo LC-A birthday products

The Galleries section of the microsite is overflowing with fantastic LC-A photos. All photos that feature in the Galleries section are streamed from your Labs. So remember to tag your LC-A photos in Labs with ‘LC-A’ or ‘LC-A+’ if you want them to appear in the anniversary galleries!

We don’t want you to miss out on any of the exciting celebratory happenings so wherever you stumble across this icon on the Magazine on beta.lomography.com you can be sure that the post is connected to the LC-A 25 Year Anniversary.




	Some might think that at twenty-five, the LC-A is a bit of a late bloomer, but there aren’t many cameras that have packed in as much drama as this chap. The LC-A’s biography is a story of regime changes, politics and high finance, production struggles and relocations – that’s a lot to survive through and come out more successful on the other side!

It was 19th June 1984 when the first LOMO Compact Automat left the LOMO PLC Factory in St Petersburg and thus we have proclaimed this momentous day the LC-A’s official birthday. Join us for the build-up to the LC-A’s big anniversary bash on 19th June 2009 where we’ll be throwing not-to-be-missed parties at our Gallery Stores and Lomography Embassies parties all around the world. Read on and find out more ways to get involved in all the competitions, parties and projects we have in store!
