[@skiffens]

I had a Kodak 110 a hundred years ago. It was my first camera.

[@Pixel_400_Photography]

What an interesting camera! Great review, thanks!

[@tonyb2760]

I remember as a child my mother had an Argus 110 camera and took family photos with it, so there is some nostalgia with this release although from a different company. Thanks for sharing

[@karlrichards]

Being a 80s/90s child who started on 110 film, this brought floods of memories back. I think this is definitely going be my birthday present.

[@scribbleface]

this is great thanks so much Gordon

[@AzraAveiro]

Thanks for the detailed review, especially that you share the results in prints!

[@cameralabs]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed the prints!

[@Transterra55]

A fantastic drive down memory lane… Thanks.

[@cameralabs]

You're welcome!

[@HumanClouds]

Great video, and complinents to Lomography for keeping 110 alive!

[@cameralabs]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@PhotoReactionVideos]

Fantastic review, as always, thank you Gordon 😊👍🏻🍺

[@cameralabs]

Thankyou!

[@PhilKnall]

Wonderful video. Love that you did your examples as prints. I was fully intending to skip this but the orange color way is absolutely irresistible! The open/close mechanism has surfaced some long forgotten memories of playing with my mom's camera...

[@cameralabs]

Thanks, I like to film the actual prints, although I've noticed the other reviews which show scans, the images do look nicer. Glad you liked my approach anyway, and yes, the orange plastic version does look cool!

[@PhilKnall]

@@cameralabs I'm sure the scans might give you a more "accurate" image of the picture quality, but this approach is more pleasing 😀

[@cameralabs]

@@PhilKnall thanks!

[@pomstar69]

Thank you for this very informative and competent review! A pleasure to watch!

[@cameralabs]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@johnbowyer6902]

My first camera was a keystone pocket-110 in 1976. I shot positive slide film with it, but I had a devil of a time finding slide adapters for it so that I could view the slides on a 35mm slide projector.😮😊

[@clararose1922]

my first camera as a kid was a 110 camera branded crayola crayons, was a great format to get kids started nice to see film made again

[@Fluffymagicalbunny]

This is such a cool camera. I am totally getting the metal one with the flash. ♥️♥️♥️

[@AjaySingh-228]

Its looks cool Sir

[@iNerdier]

The winding mechanism is like the later Minox cameras, always enjoyed that clever dual use of the collapsing mechanism.

[@annabelle.112]

I bought an agfamatic 2000 last summer and I love the pictures that I took with and the experience. It's definitely the camera that I will take with me wherever I go in summertime I just love the fact that these are pockets camera. Only cons is the cost for dev and scans.

[@conrad4094]

Firstly, nicely done review. And now for the rambling bit: yes I would very much like to see more analog camera content. On the subject of THIS camera I will be buying one come payday but the aluminium version . My feelings towards 110 are primarily great fondness and nostalgia as my gran gave me her old Kodak Instamatic 110 camera when I was 11 and I still have it. Now , heading for 40, I have a collection of 33 110 cameras , along with many 35mm SLRs and some medium format film cameras and my grandads Voightlander Vito Ii which he left to me last year . My gran really kicked off a photography obsession for me

[@cameralabs]

I'm looking forward to seeing how the metal one looks and feels vs the plastic one. I think shooting B&W could be a really nice combo with this camera...

[@NunoxFerreira]

I remember a Agfa camera that my father used to had. I still have some negative film and i can CLEARLY identify places and people: me most of the time (months old) ❤ 📷

[@cameralabs]

Agfa were big in 110 as well...

[@paololarocca7684]

Very interesting , I like the look of these sample photos although I never used a camera like this, I basically started with digital (except of a few disposable film cameras) but I like the look of film photos…

[@cameralabs]

They are fun - it's a fun format to use

[@trevorbrooks813]

My wife had a Kodak 110 back in the 70's, we still have and it works fine. Since 110 negs have about the same area as an apsc sensor I don't think it's the film holding back results... There's also been a resurgent interest in half frame which seems to have plenty of steam in it, and now we have Pentax developing a new half frame cam. Interesting times.

[@cameralabs]

Yes, I love the variety we're seeing now...

[@JoshCameron]

This might just be a contender for my next purchase! I’ve shot 35mm film before but never 110, and the form factor of these little cameras really appeals to me!

[@cameralabs]

Hi Josh, it is fun, but a small format so you have to be a bit careful.

[@ubeeh]

I had to smile when you said your very first camera was a 110 Kodak. Mine was an Agfamatic 2008, and I still have it. It is working, although the transport mechanism has become a bit sluggish by not being used. During the pandemic, I dusted it off and shot some photos with it. And I added my childhood dream Agfamatic 6008 (the high-end model back then) for a whopping 15 Euros. I am kind of tempted by the Lomomatic but I find the metal model which I like too expensive.

[@cameralabs]

Yes, if you have a working vintage model, it's way cheaper. The Lomo is really only for people who don't want to gamble on an older one.

[@3lkstr]

What a great review! Most of what I've seen so far are from people who have clearly never shot 110 (or analogue for that matter.) I have a Minolta Zoom 110, but considering this for the faster lens, multiple exposure and pocket-ability. You got some really great images out of this! ✌️

[@cameralabs]

Thanks!

[@vic_the_roman]

Back in the 70's and 80's --> a 110 mm camera was my intro to the camera world. Bought a Kodak Tele-EKTRA 1 and a roll of Lomography Tiger last year. Still have not used it. Gotta take that camera out for a spin soon😅.

[@cameralabs]

Definitely!

[@MyHumanWreckage]

One of my first cameras was an Agfa 110 which took fantastic photos, especially if you used Agfa film. I still have the camera.

[@cameralabs]

I remember the Agfa models...

[@AS-oz6ep]

Some serious nostalgia here. I never owned one, but my mom did when I was a child (I’m dating myself, I guess). Most of our family photos were shot with it.

[@cameralabs]

Go back to the 70s and early 80s and everyone had one! So many memories recorded of all of us!

[@2Old4Toys]

Glad Lomography is keeping the format alive though the old Pentax auto 110 did not get a shoe in here 😢

[@mattpongetti1]

I remember using a mini 110 camera that came with my cereal. I still have a SLR Minolta camera

[@larrywhite8590]

This is awesome thanks! Definitely brings back memories.

[@rickfarber4243]

Thanks for another well-done video. In terms of the loss in quality of having a small film size, it is interesting to note that 110 film is almost exactly the same size as a micro 4/3 sensor. So, Olympus shooters may take issue.

[@cameralabs]

Yes, you're right!

[@garydmercer]

First camera was a kodak instamatic It used plug in flash cubes that rotated. I got a few good images with it before getting my first SLR, the Pentax Me Super which I absolutely loved.

[@cameralabs]

The ME Super was amazing, I had one, and an MX as well.

[@garydmercer]

@@cameralabs The Pentax Me Super led me to becoming a pro photographer years later. :)

[@redrosemassacre1]

Man, these photos are gorgeous. Thanks for doing this review. I was waiting for a credible source to do it.

[@cameralabs]

Thankyou, I appreciate it! I thought the images from In An Instant looked nicer, but I think they were scanned from the film, whereas I filmed my prints, so there's a different look to them. Glad you liked them.

[@pwood5733]

When i was in a soldier we used to call these 110 cameras ‘squadimatics’ as you could pocket them and were so quick in chaos to wipe out and take a shot so fast

[@cameralabs]

Nice!

[@livonian]

Disk film next please 😁

[@cameralabs]

Hah! it did cross my mind! I had one of those too, and the results were not great. i'm not sure anyone's gonna ressurect that one!

[@headwerkn]

I’m surprised/amazed Hanimex got to the UK. I always thought they were most an Australian/NZ and Asian brand? My first camera was a no name 110 however both my parents and grandparents had various Hanimex 110s and 126s in the 70s and early 80s. My grandparents upgraded their cameras much more regularly (they also had one of those godawful Kodak Disc cameras) and I’d rediscover them as a kid in various drawers and cupboards. I still keep a Hanimex IEF next to the first photo I took of my Nan when I was 8.

[@cameralabs]

I'd no idea where they were from!

[@heiner71]

The film transport is just like the old Agfa "Ritsch Ratsch Klick" cameras. I thought I still have one but I can't find it. Only thing I found was a cheap Photo Porst camera for 110 film, looking very similar to your Hanimex.

[@darylcheshire1618]

I enjoyed “The Night Stalker” with Darren McGavin. Kolchak would hurredly take a photo of a monster or something with a 110 camera with the flash on the end. Later in the darkroom Kolchak would hang up a beautiful poster print in sharp detail.

[@CreepingDead]

Kolchak’s camera was a Rollie16 that used 16mm film. It was actually a super expensive camera at the time, which was sort of an in-joke on the show, since everything else about Kolchak was so cheap

[@piyastudios]

I would love it if you review the new Pentax film camera when it releases!!

[@cameralabs]

I'll try to do that!

[@TheGramophoneGirl]

Tempted me to go buy one of their films for an old camera. Surprised I can still get the film and get it processed in the UK for reasonable cost. A bit of fun nostalgia.

[@cameralabs]

You should check there's a convenient lab for you for processing as not everyone can do 110, but you could of course post it to a lab.

[@TheGramophoneGirl]

@@cameralabs I was going to post it as there's nowhere nearby that does developing, let alone 110. Costs aren't too bad considering the rarity factor. Gone are the days of £3.99 developing including postage and a free film lol.

[@cameralabs]

@@TheGramophoneGirl yeah, I remember those cheap postal labs! I made a video about my 'first 10,000 photos' where I included some of the old envelopes!

[@theangrymarmot8336]

I just ordered the metal version and some film. The only issue I have with buying a cheaper used camera is you are rolling the dice. Sellers these days think if the camera fires the shutter it is "tested and working" and leave it at that. I guess you could roll the dice a few times for the cost of the new Lomo 100 - but I would rather just buy a new one, and support a company doing need things in the film space.

[@cameralabs]

That's very true. I'm interesting in the metal one myself. I prefer the colour of the plastic one, but I like the idea of the metal finish.

[@stankell3629]

How about a digital 4/3 or apsc version and keep the absolute simplicity?

[@The_CGA]

When I was a kid i preferred my little pocket 110, same form factor as this one. People got me plastic 35… Still preferred the 110. Im pretty set against developing film in house, but…this small i can access my old dark box expertise from working the photo counter at the drugstore back in the early 2000s

[@cameralabs]

Yeah, I'm tempted to fire-up the old darkroom!

[@j.fontaine2491]

I recently picked up the silver version of the Lomomatic 110. I'm working my way through the first roll. I had an issue with the flash night firing despite having the green ready light and being in low light. Any idea what I might be doing wrong? Thanks and thanks for the video!

[@cameralabs]

Do you mean the flash NOT firing in low light? Is it screwed in properly - maybe take it off and on again to make sure. And check which flash mode it's set to. Or maybe the camera thinks it has enough light, although unlikely!

[@Ces1um]

How does the zone focusing selector feel? From videos it appears stiff and I worry about it being easily broken as it will be a regularly operated control?

[@cameralabs]

I kinda felt that too - sometimes it wouldn't quite click, and I felt I was maybe pushing it a bit hard, I think if you stop pushing and maybe push it back the other way, it might then go to where you want it.

[@SinaFarhat]

Nice! If you feel adventures load aome cine 16mm film at home in one of those casettes and save money per roll.

[@cameralabs]

Now that IS adventurous! I think I might find B&W is the future for 110 and myself, and I may even venture into a bit of home processing again!

[@lackoliver55]

That open/close motion audio bit gave me a good giggle. Thank you sir.

[@cameralabs]

I had B-roll ready to go and then i thought... what if...?

[@CakeorDeath420]

Thanks for the review. I have to say, the pictures are a lot better than I expected them to be. And yes, would definitely like to see more of film reviews.

[@cameralabs]

Then for you, I will arrange it!

[@deathdoor]

[@jendoe411]

I recently bought this camera and still finishing my first film roll. I have a question though; when composing you look through the viewfinder, will it exactly be the same frame in the photo or you need to adjust since the viewfinder is not directly positioned as the lens? Thank you.

[@cameralabs]

Yes, the viewfinder is not 100% accurate, especially at closer ranges. Beware when photographing people or objects.

[@InAnInstant]

6x4.4 is the future. We've all been saying it!!

[@cameralabs]

Hi Ben, thanks for dropping by! I was impressed my local lab could do this as I naively thought they had pre-cut sizes of paper. Of course they don't, it's a roll that's 6in wide and they just chop it wherever the machine tells it, so any size is possible. So forget about 6x4.5in - that's for losers! 6x4.4in is where it's at! PS - love your videos by the way, been a fan for a long time, great production and presentation. As I commented on your video, I was also really impressed by your images from it - were they scanned by yourself or your lab?

[@youjustgotcarled]

Does this camera use the sprocket hole to know when you can take a picture? I'm wondering if I can use reloaded film in this.

[@cameralabs]

Hmm, not sure. It obviously uses them to wind the film on, but beyond that? Do other Lomo 110 cameras work with reloaded film?

[@youjustgotcarled]

@@cameralabs I'm not sure, I've never used any, but if you can use the shutter button on this without film in it it should be fine to use with reloaded film

[@artistjoh]

Yes, vintage 110 cameras are cheap, but this new Lomomatic 110 has that selectable electronic ISO switch, and no other 110 camera has that, and as you point out, it is brilliant for controlling exposure. A few high end vintage 110 cameras had a 100/400 selector, but you have to hack current 110 cartridges to activate it, and it is a whole roll thing. Being able to change ISO on the fly is a game changer. Lomomatic for the win!

[@cameralabs]

Yes, that's a key benefit of this one, especially as you get used to how it meters...

[@thebitterfig9903]

I'm just thinking how sweet a Micro43 digital camera with a similar size profile would be. Anyhow, this seems like it's probably one of the best 110 film cameras made. A possibly dubious honor, but still.

[@cameralabs]

A dubious honour indeed! I'd be happy if Panasonic just made the GM series again.

[@thebitterfig9903]

@@cameralabs I just think there'd be something fun about this kind of configuration and ergonomics, the location of the viewfinder and lens. Fuji has their throwback to the rangefinder style in the x100vi, Ricoh has their GR which is very much a classic 35mm compact. If Pana or Olympus did a fixed lens m43 that referenced 110 camera designs, that'd be a lot of fun. Maybe the size of the sensor is too much for so small a device, but even a 1" sensor in a 110-like body would probably be a treat.

[@GabrielGGabGattringer]

The next analog film format which will increase in price asap as hipsters / Gen Z jumps on this rediscovered format (just like 35mm).

[@benharveyphotography]

I feel like I should apologise for those photos I took in the coffee shop! Blurred, over exposed and the composition was off (I put you in the middle of the viewfinder!). Probably the worst photos I have taken in a while! I honestly believed you handed me a camera from decades ago though, the design is very convincing.

[@cameralabs]

No problem Ben, it's part of the charm, and there will be parallax errors at closer range.

[@Evanna11LilyLuna]

Useful video, gets into some of the details! If i had lots of money i'd def get this (having a light meter and exposure stuff that's not 40 years old sounds good, plus having more exposure settings AND multiple exposures is cool). As it is i have a whole collection of 110 cameras and i haven't even used all of them yet so i will spend my money on film and developing/scans/prints first.

[@cameralabs]

Thanks! Which is your favourite in your collection?

[@Evanna11LilyLuna]

@@cameralabs so hard to say! I love my baby Diana because it's just fun and can do multiple exposures. I love my kodak mini instamatic s30 because it has a nice lens, it's small, very solidly build and has a few exposure settings. Then I have the minilta 110 zoom SLR because it has all the options and looks cool. It's a bit heavier and bigger though, so I have to take it with me intentionally. The Diana Baby and sometimes also the s30 just live in my bag. Those are my 3 favs and what I've mostly used. I also have a kodak tele ektralite 600 which has the really cool slidy lens thingy and a flash! Then I have a voigtlander vitorer 110 El which I haven't used yet but it's tiny aaand has a flash! Then I have a few more cameras because someone nearby was selling them all for cheap and I wanted the tele ektralite they had. I want to try them all slowly and then sell on the ones I won't use but time and money etc, and I haven't gotten around to it yet. What's your fav 110 camera?

[@artistjoh]

As an Australian I guess I should have been patriotic and bought a Hanimex 110 as well, but instead, I went American, and bought a Kodak. Hanimex was second only to Kodak in numbers of 110 cameras sold back then and it is sad that Fuji eventually bought the company just to extinguish it as a competitor. Doubly sad because years before Hanimex was given an award by the Japanese government for contribution to Japanese industry because as distributor of Fuji products, Hanimex did much to increase international awareness of Fuji products and boosting their exports. Fuji's reward for that was to close the Hanimex factory and retire the brand after buying it. There is no love in business and war.

[@cameralabs]

I'd no idea Hanimex were Australian... they were hugely popular in the UK.

[@artistjoh]

@@cameralabsYes, Hanimex is an Australian migrant success story. Jack Hannes was born in Germany but his family escaped the Nazi regime in 1939 and went to Australia. Hanimex is short for HANnes IMport EXport. By 1970 it was the second biggest slide projector manufacturer in the world, and was selling a lot of cameras. Their business model was to both manufacture locally and to rebrand other maker's products, and to hire production lines in other factories, especially Japan and Hong Kong. This manufacturing adaptability was their competitive edge. They were also manufacturing for other companies. 110 cameras sold in the US by Sears were simply rebadged Hanimex. They also made lenses for companies like Vivitar and made Hanimex lenses for Pentax K-mount. Later, Hanimex purchased Vivitar and was in control of all Vivitar manufacturing. Hanimex manufacturing factories were mostly in Australia, Japan, and Hong Kong. Hanimex had some "firsts" including the first point and shoot 110 dive camera that could go down to 45 meters (the Amphibian) and those bright yellow cameras became popular at swimming pools world wide. At some point Hanimex got into video gaming consoles, and computers, but cameras remained their core business. They started manufacturing cassette players. Sadly Hanimex failed to adapt to the digital camera revolution, and their success in 110 meant that they were the last major 110 format manufacturer to be selling the cameras. Their inability to make a timely digital transition made them vulnerable. Gestetner bought Hanimex in 1989 and after that the company mostly stopped innovating. Ricoh bought it 1995. Ricoh was happy to just milk profits from Hanimex's film cameras, but did not want to invest in digital and that was the nails going into the coffin. Business collapsed as people stopped buying film cameras, especially 110, and in 2004 Fuji swooped in, bought the company and simply closed the business down, repurposing factories to Fuji products, keeping patents, contracts, offices, and staff they deemed valuable. Hanimex was like Kodak, huge in film, and film cameras, but their addiction to film ended up wrecking the company. Kodak managed to survive the turmoil, Hanimex did not. Hanimex is mostly forgotten these days, but at one time their teal green and red stripe livery was in virtually every camera store in the free world, and from a plucky Australian migrant who escaped the Nazis for a new life in Australia.

[@bobbleczar]

Love your videos. I can't understand why anyone would want to shoot 110, but it is cute and I did use the Pentax 110 SLR at one point. I just didn't think the results were very impressive.

[@cameralabs]

Oooh, the Pentax 110 SLR! I'd love to have tried that - I'm not ruling out an eBay saved search!

[@evo271]

Producing new cameras for something like the 110 seems such a plastic toxic waste when there are so many that nobody uses because it's a niche format film and it's harder to develop.

[@jukeboxjohnnie]

The images were never really sharp unless you had a Pentax 110 or Minolta 110 SLR

[@user-sd3ik9rt6d]

Its a toy I like toys

[@randallstewart1224]

Here's another Lomo 110 review this week. Apparently, this is the week that Lomo sent out dozens of cameras to KZbinrs, hoping for a lot of free advertising hype. So far, they are all the same, except that some mention the price, $120-160, and some skip over suggesting that you should spend such money on a format which died 40 years ago. Let inject a bit of reality. Lomo smartly sells 110 formated film because at one time there were probably more 110 cameras out there than 35mm. They were cheap; they were mostly junk; most produced poor images, and 95% ended up in some landfill. There is a tiny market for those still shooting a high-end 110 model, like a Canon 110ED, Pentax 110 SLR, or the Minox 110S I had. (Made by Balda for sale as the Leica 110, but Leitz decided the whole idea was "not quite Leica".) There is a huge difference between selling parts to keep your Ford Model T running, and trying to sell a new Model T. That distinction has been totally lost on Lomo and in these videos. Good news: In a month, these videos will be gone, off to join YT hype videos for Phoenix 200 film.

[@cameralabs]

Er, I did mention the price and that I thought it was expensive when you could buy a thrift store 110 for 10 quid. And also that Lomo wins either way as they're the sole producer of the film. As for lots of reviews at the same time, that's the nature of all product releases. Every company sets a launch time and date which is the earliest anyone can talk about it publicly. Reviewers get product to test under NDA before hand and typically publish at the earliset time, so the launch time - hence many videos about the same thing arriving at the same time. Same for every product.

I have two of those, the SLR looking one. It’s so cute. Got a roll of Lomo Turquoise in it at the moment
