| | |  | Viva Faves | Home » » Lomography Diana F+ Medium Format Camera with Flash | | | | | | | Description: | | The brand new Diana F+ is a faithful reproduction and a loving homage to the classic Flash Diana - with a few new features tossed in. First off, it includes a retro-styled electronic flash which fires a burst of white or colored light at your subject. Included adapters allow you to use the Diana Flash on standard hotshoe cameras (like the LC-A+ and Fisheye 2) or use a hotshoe flash on Diana F+ body. Its plastic lens, 2 shutter settings (daylight & "B"), 3 aperture settings, and manual focus are all hallmarks of the original Diana. And on top of that, the Diana F+ offers a removable lens and super-small aperture for pinhole images, two image formats (12 or 16 square shots on a standard 120 roll), an endless panorama feature that allows for unlimited and nearly seamless panoramic shots, and both a standard tripod thread & shutter lock for easy shake-free long exposures. Each package includes the new "Diana Vignettes, More True Tales & Short Stories" book - packed with over 200 pages of Diana history, Diana+ images, and truly off-the-wall fictional stories. Uses all varieties of medium format 120 film. | | | Features: | |

Very niceJul 20, 2010
I bought this camera because my other Diana didn't have a flash. I had also bought flashes to go with the Diana so it was nice to have the adapter. I have been using this camera at parties with the instax mini film to take instant photos. It's fun and a conversation starter. I use the other Diana for regular film. This is easy to use and fun to play with.

Got this camera for my daughter's birthday. She was absolutely stoked and was our snapping pics in no time. Can't wait to see how she did.

 Nice cameraJan 26, 2010
I like the DianaF+ a great deal and am pleased with the results I get from taking photos with it. In fact, I prefer the DianaF+ over my Holga. The DianaF+ is particularly effective when using the flash. It creates an interesting and artistic vignette that is very cool. I particularly like the "retro" design.
My 4 star rating is based on two things: 1) In my opinion, it's pricey for a plastic camera. And 2) I can't get the lens to remove for pinhole shooting. It just won't come off.

Missing one important thing...Dec 27, 2009
I got this as a gift for my brother - he loves it, has been playing with it, very happy. But if your giving it as a gift, you need to buy 120 medium format film (as opposed to regular 35mm film). This is NOT included with the kit, and you'll have to go a camera shop to get it (i.e. not wal-mart). Interestingly, you do not need batteries - except for the flash (1 AA).
Not a big deal, but luckily I realized the need in time to purchase the film, because Christmas presents are more fun if you can play with them right away.
Would definitely buy this again. Probably not for a very young child unless they're really serious about cameras - has manual focus, lots of fiddly settings - fun for my 30 year old architect brother, not great for an eight year old (I imagine). Have yet to see the pictures it takes to see if they're really that unique - will try to update.

Didn't think i was going to have this much fun with a plastic film camera!Oct 29, 2009
Got this camera and had a Blast! It's easy to use but offers plenty of room to learn and fine tune your film techniques. The medium format is fun and I shot some great pictures with it, however I completely suggest getting the 35mm back for this camera. The camera has been sturdy for me, I've had no problems and it seems as long as i treat it fairly well it should last a long time for a plastic camera. I've also used a Holga too, and I strongly recommend this camera. You get a lot more options and add-ons with the Diana. good luck, take some fun pictures.
