What is Lomography?

hahah OK here goes, the short sweet version.
Lomography is film based 사진 that uses physical defects/limitations in a camera for artistic value.If I want to simulate the effects of a lomo camera using my DSLR I need to use photoshop. 사진 taken with a lomo camera have high contrast, twisted colors, and a noticeable vignette. Because Lomo 사진 have a strong and noticeable vignette. I have to start off 의해 adding a strong vignette to the photo! And continue from there..There are hundreds (not literally) of different cameras that are classed as Lomo cameras, some have multiple lenses, others have 물고기 eye lenses etc. – which give 당신 the illusion of looking through the view finder of a door. Lomography is 더 많이 fun as 당신 never know how your image will come out until they are produced. Lomo cameras are sometimes referred to as toy cameras - which they are not.

This is from Wikipedia. Lomography is the commercial trademark of Lomographische AG, Austria for products and services related to photography. The name is inspired 의해 the former state-run optics manufacturer LOMO PLC of Saint Petersburg, Russia. LOMO PLC created and produced the 35 mm LOMO LC-A Compact 자동 판매기 camera — which became the centerpiece of Lomography's marketing and sales activities. This camera was loosely based upon the Cosina CX-1 and introduced in the early 1980s.
I hope this explains it. :)
