Lomography's 2024 Holiday Gift Guide for Every Kind of Analogue Lover

The Holiday season has arrived again. It's the most wonderful time of the year to reflect on our film journey these past few months, revel in some of our accomplishments and most memorable moments, and look forward to the next year with new goals in mind!

If you're still struggling to come up with the best Holiday gift for a loved one (or even yourself), here is our 2024 gift guide for every kind of photographer, from the busy or casual shutterbug looking for the best film companion to the creative connoisseur looking to explore outside their comfort zone or the film obsessive eager to know the ins and outs of film photography and its many formats.

Let's get into it!

For the On-the-Go Shutterbug

La Sardina & LomoApparat

The LomoApparat is the perfect versatile companion for all film shutterbugs who want to capture life’s magical moments on film. Handy and packed with creative functions to shoot wide, with a color gel filter or in kaleidoscope mode, this camera could be a fitting gift for the adventurous friend, partner, sibling – or yourself!

Meanwhile, the La Sardina DIY is great for any beginner or casual film photographer interested in designing and customizing their cameras. It just goes to show that there’s more to film photography than shooting! Whether it’s a sticker collage, gems, trinkets, or painted watercolor, this camera lets your imagination run wild.

Metal Film Case

If you’re anything like us, you also probably have rolls of film stacked in random pockets in your bag or on top of your desk, ready to be whipped out anytime you need it. But if you’re looking for an accessory to organize your film better, the Lomography Metal Film Case makes storing film more convenient, so you have everything in one place for easier access. This accessory is the best for film photographers on the go, ready to take on the day with a film camera and a few rolls of their favorite film in hand.

Lomomatic 110

As Lomography is the only company producing the compact 110 format, it made sense for us to release a brand new premium point-and-shoot that is perfect for today's on-the-go film shooters. Compact enough that it can slip in your pocket and is built with fun features like multiple exposures, day and night time mode, flash attachment, and ISO switch, this is an easy-to-use camera that's great for capturing your worldwide adventures.

Coming in an abundance of colorways like the cute and colorful Golden Gate or the sleek Zebra Crossing, there is surely a Lomomatic 110 that will speak to you!

For the Creative Connoisseur

Art Lenses

If you’re looking for a gift for a loved one with an eye for looking at the world through different lenses, the Nour Triplet V 2.0/64 Bokeh Control Art Lens and the Petzval Art Lens are great options for this Holiday season.

The Nour Lens features three bokeh effects – classic, bubble, and soft. While the Petzval boasts its iconic swirly bokeh. These unique lenses are fantastic for photographers and videographers who want to capture an offbeat, creative, and ethereal vibe.

Sprocket Rocket

The Sprocket Rocket has been a staple in the Lomography lineup of cameras for years. As the world’s first camera designed to expose 35 mm film sprockets, it continues to provide an innovative way to capture the world around us. Just like the colorful results from each sprocket-filled photo, Lomography has released new eye-catching editions of this out-of-this-world camera. Coming in the flamboyant Peacock, the classic-looking Coconut, the fiery Bittersweet, and the majestic Baja Blue, each camera is sure to turn heads every time you bring it out.

LomoChrome Color ’92 Sun-kissed

The LomoChrome lineup of films has always provided film photographers with tools to go beyond typical film photography. Always finding a way to bring out the creativity in us, LomoChrome's new offering – the LomoChrome Color ’92 Sun-kissed provides an extra layer of warmth for a truly nostalgic-inducing film stock. As we experience some colder weather for the next few months, shooting this film stock will surely provide that extra bit of sun we are all searching for.

For the Film Obsessive

DigitaLIZA

The DigitaLIZA line, which includes the DigitaLIZA+, DigitaLIZA Max, and DigitaLIZA scanning masks in 110, 120, and 35 mm, is suited for that loved one who wants to explore the whole process of film photography.

These scanning essentials, when paired with the free online DigitaLIZA Lab Tool, make scanning film negatives a seamless process for anyone who wants to take control, and scan and edit their film by themselves.

Lomo’Instant Wide Glass

The instant format is often underrated and relegated to more casual shooting. But it can also be used brilliantly as a tool for more professional work. For those looking for a new instant camera that can capture everything in fine detail the Lomo’Instant Wide Glass is the perfect choice.

Coming with an abundance of features including exposure compensation, pc sync for an external flash, and different shutter speeds for your full creative control, this instant camera is a defining tool to showcase the power of the instant format.
