The Lomo Panoramic 360° Camera lets you see your snaps in a whole new light because this jaw droppingly unique camera captures truly panoramic shots of the world around you.
The Lomo creates up to eight photos using any regular 36 exposure 35mm roll that can then be processed at any high street photo lab.
It's really easy to use too. Simply grab the handle, tug the ripcord and watch as the Lomo spins on its own axis, snapping everything it sees for one breathtaking, super-wide, all-encompassing shot that’s four times longer than a standard landscape snap. It’s like having eyes in the back of your head. And the front and the sides.
There are loads of ways to shoot. Hold the Lomo at arms length if you want to be in the shot or above your head if not. Or how about the Rollercoaster (hold the camera at an angle for a wave-like effect); the Group Hug (you and your pals gather round the Lomo in a circle and let it spin in the middle) or Manual Exposure (rotate the camera with your hand for partial panoramas/low light situations). You can even capture 180° shots by only pulling the cord halfway.
The possibilities are endless. Only problem is you'll probably need a larger photo album
The Lomo Panoramic Camera is available online for £99.99 click here
