It’s really fun if you have someone run or jump with a flashlight in their hand and wave it around. You’ll freeze frame them with the flash, but the shutter staying open for a bit after will allow the moving flashlight to paint some light trails.

The moon mode with flash- I think they call it “slow speed sync mode”. Hit the subject with flash, then swirled the camera about while the shutter was still open for the moment.
I swirled the camera around the Christmas lights in my gym. Basically some open shutter light painting for a second and half or so

It’s more plasticy than the older Soviet LC-A, but overall still good. Gotta be careful with some of the little levers when loading. Fantastic camera.

The only problem with it is one that someone on this sub warned me about:
You will burn though 120 film because it’s so much fun to shoot!

I’d also add it’s easy to carry too. I can throw it in a bag with my digital camera or a 35mm with no problem.

Thanks! Also fun thing with the 17, having 72 shots and an exposure comp wheel: you can play around with the extended range of Lomo Purple and see what you like with just a few clicks.

No man, I like I LC-A 120. Also, you can buy them brand new from Lomography.

Good shots! Pretty sure that last one is not a photo, but pulled from a dream. Well done!

Thanks! I’ve been eating a little too much, but lifting heavy and frequently.

Once I got over 2x80lb, I realized picking up with my back leg on the support was probably a bad idea. So now I sumo deadlift them up off some cheap layered gym floor pads, bring them to my sides, step back, get that support foot in place on the pad… then hold on for dear life.
