Lomographic ActionSampler

The ACTIONSAMPLER has four lenses instead of one. Inside, it has a few springs that turn a full circle when you press the shutter. It uses standard 35mm film. The aperture speed is 1sec., that is the time that takes all the lenses to open and close, one by one. The result is four frames on the same negative, if you want nice pictures, all you need is nice weather, it needs a lot of light and outdoors shots of course, in case there is not a lot of light outside, you should use faster film, 400ISO on direct sun light, and 800ISO or 1600ISO at dawn or in the shade. Movement is always very nice to capture with the ACTIONSAMPLER. It comes in 3 colors : clear, white or chrome (I chose the last one, it looks awesome). I always use 400ISO outdoors with a lot of sun, when I bought mine in Madrid, they told me to use only 100ISO if I was like in the dessert of something like that. Using this camera was my first encounter with lomography philosophy...DON'T THINK, JUST SHOOT!!
