La Sardina is on the Market!

Lomography has done it again...they've brought our a new camera for all the analogue fans out there!

Heres the Official Lomography press: -

La Sardina
The Fresh and Unique 35mm Fish Can Super-wide-angle Camera 

Fishy Fantasy

Straight from the La Sardina fish market, Lomography brings you four stylish cameras that will take 
analogue lovers' hearts by storm. Meet El Capit·n, Fischer's Fritze, Sea Pride and Marathon, the first 
four colorful clones (with a 1000 more to come) of the brand-new La Sardina camera. La Sardina is a 
point and shoot camera, using 35mm film and equipped with a plastic wide-angle lens that enables 
pros and beginners to shoot beautiful Lomographs easily. No need for long explanations at your local 
lab, the processing is really easy due to the regular format of the shots. As different as these four 
models may be, they all have one thing in common - a crazy wide-angle plastic lens and the best lens 
ring of all time.

El Capit·n and Fisher's Fritze are also equipped with Fritz the Blitz, Lomography's newest and most 
powerful flash. Not only is this stunning flash the most powerful Lomographic flash ever, it also 
comes complete with 3 unique distance settings that allow you to set the power of the flash - giving 
you maximum creative control. This flash is also packaged with yellow, red and blue filters that will 
drench even the darkest pirate adventure in colorful light.

While its designs are flashy and stylish, the technical features of La Sardina are humbly reduced to 
the basics to enable even the greenest of greenhorns to make a first step into Lomography. Say hello 
to your new favourite camera!
