About
Lomography are thrilled to announce the arrival in store of the newest member of the Lomography Art Lens family, The Daguerreotype Achromat 2.9/64 lens. Thanks to the huge support on Kickstarter, we were able to produce this soft focused lens that is directly inspired by the world’s first photographic optic lens – a 19th century invention created by Charles Chevalier for the Daguerreotype camera.
We will be hosting an exhibition opening featuring shots, taken on this new beautiful lens, from the likes of Chris Pollard & Emily Soto. You'll get to try out the lens and talk to Chris Pollard about his experiences using this lens. There will be free drinks throughout the evening.
Everyone is welcome so do join us!
This is a FREE event, come on down from 6pm for free drinks and snacks! The exhibition runs until the 2nd December.
