The 20mm Diana+ Fisheye Lens

Ultra-Wide Fisheye Images with your Diana+

May we present a super-wide interchangeable plastic Fisheye lens for the Lomography Diana+ cameras. Each shot yields a 180° circular image on a square print – bursting with the Diana+’s saturated colours and dreamy atmosphere.

For the past three years, we at the Lomographic Society have been gripped by the power of “Fisheye Mania” – a complete addiction to the unbelievable effects and distortions of super-wide lenses. We are now thrilled to launch our newest step in this direction: an interchangeable plastic Fisheye lens for the Lomography Diana+ and Diana F+ cameras! With a 20mm focal length and a 180° field of view, this is the world’s first all-plastic interchangeable fisheye lens for a medium format camera! Here’s what it can do:

180-Degree Field of view: This enormous field of view takes in literally half of the world around you and compacts it into a nice and tight circular image. Barrel distortions twist and bend your subjects around the edges, stretch them towards and away from your lens, and converge their lines towards the center.

True Diana+ Images: This high-quality plastic lens perfectly captures the signature look of Diana+ images – warm, saturated colors, soft focus, and that special dreamlike feeling.

Extreme close-up potential: Not an exercise for the timid - the Fisheye lavishly rewards those who bravely advance within a whisper of their subject. Get right up to their face, and watch their nose get sucked into your lens while their ears and forehead s-l-i-d-e-s backwards. Sharp, beautiful pictures are possible from even the closest quarters.

Huge depth of field: Super-wide-angle images like the ones spat out by the Fisheye come with a wonderful bonus: focused sharpness from the front to the rear of your image. Each fisheye image shows massive depth of field, so your subject and background will be nice and crispy clear.

... plastic lens, but find them a little flat? What you need is the Holga 120 3D Stereo Camera, Lomo’s medium format ... some photographic 3D action. The plastic-bodied Holga makes you think you’re looking at it cross-eyed, or that somebody has mashed together ... like rectangles up top? Yup, they’re flashes, and the camera comes with colored gels so you can splash differently-tinted light ...
