Highlights
- The HydroChrome is a truly captivating creative tool – we encourage you to experiment with analogue abandon and revel in the results!
- A liquid-filled lens?! Inspired by Thomas Sutton’s unconventional original, our contemporary version lets you manipulate the liquid through which the lens focuses – so fill ’er up for some truly luscious liquified effects.
Humble H20. Just adding plain, wholesome water to the Sutton liquid lens will give rise to enchanting, dreamy effects. Pop a drop of dissolvable food coloring into the mix and you’ll invite color chaos!
- LomoChrome concoctions – why not add another color variable and pop a LomoChrome film into your camera! Mix and match liquid solutions with color-shifting emulsions and watch the rainbow flow.
- Splash and flash. Add a flash, like our Fritz the Blitz, via the PC socket and watch what happens when you combine bright light and liquid effects.
- Loads of modes. With Bulb, Multiple and Pinhole exposure modes you can let the light pour in, layer up your lomo-looks, shoot long and even leave your exposure for days to ripen in the sun.
- Keep it steady Eddy. We are all about embracing the weird and wonderful effects but it’s worth taking advantage of the tripod mount and cable release if you want to decrease some of that beautiful blur.
