Making flash photography more effective

On-board flashes on D-SLR cameras are limited in their use in lighting up a subject and so the purchase of an external flash becomes a necessity (or want in a lot of cases :) ) but still, even after bouncing the flash,the lighting still may be not right,so a diffuser accessorie might also be needed! This a great one...would like to find one or something similar in Australia!? HAve a look at this

A camera originally designed by Russian Professor Radionov for use during the cold war, Lomo's purpose was for spy games and international espionage. However, the camera failed its inventors intentions, when it was deemed not precise enough, light enough or small enough for Russian secret agents to carry on assignment (even though the camera is not much larger than a cigarette packet).

In spite of its failings, the Lomo LCA camera still remained technically astonishing, being the only camera in the world with a 32mm wide angled lens, capable of capturing shots in all conditions and from any perspective.

Based on a design that dates back over 60 years,the Lubitel 166+ is truly a mid-century masterpiece updated with stunning new features, including the ability to shoot BOTH medium format and 35mm film. Light enough to be your daily companion, powerful enough to yield mind-blowingly sharp & detailed images, and flexible enough to offer limitless creative possibilities, this handsome fella is simply the biggest news for die-hard analogue photographers in a LONG time..More info here
