I am on the second roll of three in my RB67, and am now far more excited to see how this comes out. The first roll I tried handheld in late light and hated it, hoping with sharper technique the results will be worth the effort.

[@ThePhotoDept]

Oh absolutely worth the effort. I’m excited you’ve got that to look forward to!

[@Nijensikkens]

Lomo 800 is probably Kodak 800VR, in the past you could buy it straight from Kodak in Kodak 100/200/400/800 and 1000VR. The film was discontinued in 1999 but the 800 variant lingert on in disposable camera's. Now Kodak is saying that they are coming with "new" film stocks this year, I wouldn't be surprised if they re-release the VR series of film.

[@ThePhotoDept]

I’ve heard that too, but the evidence that it is gold 800 is pretty convincing.

[@ChrisCadenhead]

I actually dig Lomo400 a lot. Have a roll of Gold 200 and curious to see how the looks compare

Thank you! I believe everything was rated at box speed.

[@fede35mm]

Are you metering at box speed or overexposing it? Yours look amazing and every time I shoot Lomo CN 800, I’m just disappointed by it.

[@ThePhotoDept]

These were all shot at 400, I should have mentioned.

[@RobMoses]

[@ThePhotoDept]

Thanks my dude

[@jackienguyen9290]

Best notification I got today

[@chrissoclone]

Is there a comprehensive list of what Lomo films are probably made of? Like e.g. Lady (Earl?) Grey being a TMax and so on? I always hear the rumor only from someone somewhere mentioned on the side, but would love to get a little more close to the source. Also... damn, how do you avoid touching that capacitor when opening the camera in complete darkness?

[@ThePhotoDept]

First, Lomo and Kodak are pretty tight lipped about that stuff. I talked to a Kodak employee the other day and can say that they aren’t allowed to comment on it. It’s all speculation really. And second, as long as you know where the capacitor is, you can avoid it by feel. It’s on the top left of the camera.

[@chrissoclone]

@@ThePhotoDept But is there maybe a "speculation list" on some photo forums or a place where the main discussion takes part?

[@GregoryVeizades]

Lady Grey and Early Grey are Fomapan films and Potsdam and Berlin Kino are ORWO films.

I work at a film lab and I have a first-hand experience with opening up disposables. They are pretty easy to do, but yes, do not touch the capacitor. I have done this on accident and have seen my coworkers do it as well. It is no fun.

[@ThePhotoDept]

I’m surprised how many people think I was being serious.

[@thedondeluxe6941]

Yeah, Kodak could definitely make Gold in medium format again if they wanted to. They used to not that long ago, I have some in the freezer! Makes me think they have some deal with Lomography to avoid competition or something.

@@ThePhotoDept It's pretty great, actually! I was given a roll and loved the results, so I bought some on ebay. I think it's the ISO 160 Gold Pro or something like that. Looks very much like the current Gold 200, but less grainy.

Too bad that Lomo 800 costs almost as much as Portra 800.

Almost but still a cost savings in quantity.

@@ThePhotoDept Yeah but Portra 800 is more flexible so it evens out for me.

[@ThePhotoDept]

@@VariTimo i'd argue i can get the same latitude out of both.

[@VariTimo]

@@ThePhotoDept I’ll test the Fun Saver film soon. But I just shoot some latitude test with Portra 800 and well it’s Portra. Obviously overexposure works great. The film is most “performant” at 640 but you can also rate it at 1600 and basically get results that are very comparable to Fuji Superia 400 at 400 in terms of grain and shadow detail. But I’m very curious how the Fun Saver film will perform. I can’t believe you can just take out the film cartridge and put it in another camera.

@@ThePhotoDept Yap I’m pretty sure it’s not since they have very different color pallets.
