Average Rating: Rating: - The fun wears off rapidly Well, the first thing I don't like about this camera is that it is called "Lomo". It doesn't really have to do much with Lomos. I am a Lomo addict and, believe me, I can tell the difference. Anyway, the so-called "Action Sampler" is basically a very cheaply made plastic camera from China. Which in itself is not a bad thing if you're aware of what you should expect from a plastic camera. Most of them have light leaks - so you can expect red glares and such nice things on your pictures unless you use black tape to cover the leaks. So take one roll of film and try to find the leaks. If there are none, you're lucky. But don't misunderstand me, there is a lot of fun involved playing with plastic cameras if you dig it (I don't...). Next tip: Use 400 speed film. My Action Sampler does work with 100 speed film only if the sun is bright. 400 speed film is good for any weather but, of course, you want to avoid dark places. The best results I got when taking pictures of moving animals. Animals don't really like to have their picture taken - at least most of them move constantly unless they sleep. The Action Sampler will give you great shots of running dogs and jumping cats and the-like. In general, movement can be captured nicely. But as I said in the title, the fun wears off rather rapidly. To summarize: I give this camera two stars because I personally think it's not worth the money but it's fun for a little while. Rating: - Much Fun! Hello, my name is Mark - and I have a problem with buying cameras. Thats right, ever since around last april I have been binging on toy cameras - from the joycam to my latest, and most welcome addition, the lomo action sampler. I'll tell you, at first I was weary of buying this camera, with no flash, for close to 40 dollars. Out on a whim, and with the extra cash, I grabbed the credit card and decided to purchase it. The camera actually came rather fast - and the minute I got it I ripped it open and popped in one of the 2 rolls of film they already supply you. Because they are 200 ASP I went outside and took some shots. First I just ran, then I took one of me on a swing set, etc. etc. Before you knew it, I was done with a roll of film! Now the part I dreaded - rewinding! Now I know, I know its not that hard. But I've been living it in high style. My nice electric cameras have been doing the trick - rewinding right as I finish! How convenient! I never had to turn the dial before, or press the button at the bottom to release the film. But honestly, it was easy as can be. So it's two days later, I grab the film and send it away to 1 hour film developing at walmart (Yes, walmart WILL develop your lomo film). An hour later I received the pictures. My heart pounding, I opened the package and looked at the first one - nothing but the best! My pictures came out wonderful and I couldn't be pleased more. Now I keep hearing about how its hard to get a nice lomo camera, without the colors on the frames. In a way, I was hoping I had one or two of those. I think they enhance the uniqueness in the photo. If you think otherwise, perhaps the lomo action sampler is not for you. While at Walmart, I grabbed an 800 speed film for my camera. Supposedly, these will now allow me to take pictures inside, with much lighting, without the flash. I'm excited to use it, and develop a few more pictures! Oh and yes, the camera is somewhat delicate. Be careful with your lomo, and treat it like a baby! Have fun! Thank you! Rating: - A great toy for artists and other creative types The Lomo "action sampler" is sold as a seque3nce camera for sports photography, but don't let that fool you. Sure, you could use it that way- but why bother when there are so many much more fun things you can do with it? What this box does is shoot four pictures in sequence on one 35mm frame; when you take your film in to get processed, you'll get prints with four images, taken over about 2 seconds. I bought an ealier version a couple years ago, and I must have run 20 rolls of film through it the first two months I had it. Here's a few of the things I tried with mine: 1. Shoot it while running down the street. 2. Tape different pieces of tinted plastic over the lenses 3. Rotate the camera while shooting, at different speeds. 4. Run up to you friends, trigger the shutter and yell "start talking! " Get the picture? It's a platform for experimentation and fun. Get one and go crazy.
