Diana F+ lens adaptors for my DSLR
I have recently discovered that Diana F+ lenses can now be paired with Nikon and Canon SLR or DSLR cameras. Lomography has created an inexpensive adapter that allows the combination of Diana F+ lenses with a camera I already own. With the Diana F+ SLR adaptors I can utilize the whole range of effects achievable with the Diana F+ lenses and accessories such as fisheye, wide-angle and close-up. I am excited about shooting through a Diana lens with my DSLR because of the convenience and technical ability of digital cameras. Another benefit of shooting with some DSLR models is the possibility of capturing HD video. The ability to shoot dreamy, intensely saturated video footage with a Diana F+ lens is incredible. I am excited to see what independent film makers do with products like the Diana F+ lenses, the possibilities are endless.
The combination of lo-tech with high-tech has encouraged me to take my exploration of photography and video to a new level. With the unique character and grittiness of Diana images, it is no surprise that the movement towards this style of photography is increasing. Now that lomography is creating products that you can use with DSLR more people will have the ability to experiment with this fantastic tool.
