The Lomography Store has a new camera available for pre-order, the BELAIR X 6-12 camera. Featuring multiple formats and auto-metering, the camera is perhaps the most flexible of its kind for an unprecedented price. Pre-order now for a 30% discount!
The BELAIR X 6-12 is a 6-12 (not 6x12) because it offers three shooting formats: 6x6, 6x9, and 6x12. Couple this with an in-camera meter and an easy to use four-step zone focusing system and you have something incredible for less than $200! The next best thing is a $4000+ Linhof!
The camera comes in the all black "City Slicker" style, a leather trim silver "Jetsetter" style, and the almost sold out, limited-edition snake-like leather "Globetrotter" style, each for $50 more than the previous.
Hint: code ILOVELOMO knocks off another 10% (that'll save you tax and then some in most states in the U.S.).
But are the lenses any good?
We will find out. We'll have a review for you when they come out :-)
Is it a digital camera?..
Nope, looks like it's multi-format film.
lol its a film camera...you know..like they had in the old days...
" you have something incredible for less than $200! The next best thing is a $4000+ Linhof!"!! really ? for less than $200 you can get a better MF camera with high quality optics! but it's interesting, if it was cheaper I might per-ordered one.
