The LOMO LC-A+ is a 35mm compact camera produced by Lomography in 2006 based on the original LOMO LC-A.
The LC-A+ is made in China. It is nearly identical to the original, but has improvements including multiple exposure, increased film speeds to 1600 ISO, a cable release compatible shutter button and front threading for accessories. The initial LC-A+ had the same Minitar lens that was made in Russia by Lomo, but versions released in 2007 and later had lenses made in China as standard. Cameras with the Russian made lenses are still available as the LC-A+ RL.
The LC-A+ lacks the zone focus markers in viewfinder and the aperture setting option of the LC-A. With a flash installed according to the manual the shutter fires as if no flash were present with the flash only being triggered when the shutter begins to close (so called "second curtain flash").
In 2011 Lomography introduced the LOMO LC-Wide based on the LC-A+ but with a ultra wide angled 17mm Minigon 1 lens. This featured just 2 focus ranges (0.4-0.9m and 0.9m-infinity) but allowed a range of frame sizes at film loading.
In 2014, a 120 film version became available called Lomography LC-A 120.
