Lomography 100/400/800 Color Film Overview: Lomography color films come in 100, 400, and 800 speed. It is a bold, fun consumer film that likes a lot of light and bright colors. It does well rated at box speed and has a fair amount of latitude. You can expect saturated colors and low grain with this film, and, while it’s great in a any camera, it pairs really well with Lomography’s toy cameras to complement their fun, quirky style. You can pick up some Lomo Color Amazon here: Lomography Color Film

Lomography 100/400/800 Review by Jennifer Stamps

I love shooting Lomo film because of the colors! They are so vibrant and lovely. Not just certain tones – but all colors – greens, blues, reds. All of it! It also can be very forgiving.

What To Expect From This Film

When photographed outdoors, this film gives a vibrant look. The light and color are just perfect together.

How To Shoot And Meter Lomography Color Films

I usually meter it at box speed. However, I have been known to meter Lomography 100 at 200 and push 1 stop.

This film shines outdoors. Oh my! The colors – the light – it’s magic! It tends to struggle indoors and can get a little murky. If you like a moody feel to your film, I’d say by all means shoot it indoors!
