Be sure to know when taking pictures.

Lead: In recent years, the continuous progress of photographic equipment has brought about the gradual development of photographic technology. As an art, photography has different meanings in every era. I believe everyone knows that lomo style will also be used in photography, because this style is natural and adapts to the current social culture. But do you know the lomo style in detail? Knowing what kind of style lomo style is, Bian Xiao will introduce lomo style to you today.

Lomo is actually a product of the 1980s. The Soviet Union imitated Japanese cameras and never acted as a spy plane. LOMO, whose full name is Lenin Radskoyoeoptikomechanichescheoyeedinnie, is the largest manufacturer of optical instruments in Russia today.

Today, LOMO has become synonymous with LOMO LC-A, which is a 35 mm auto-exposure paraxial camera developed and produced by this factory in the former Soviet Union. It was originally designed to imitate Leica's Minox and was used to equip spies in the former Soviet Union. Discontinued in the late 1980s. 199 1 Two students from Vienna Academy of Fine Arts in Austria bought LOMOLC-A in an antique shop in Prague, Czech Republic. An exhibition after returning to China made LOMOLC-A famous. These two students plastered photos taken with LOMOLC-A all over the wall-this became the main way for LOMO fans to communicate later.

The dark corners and rich colors in LOMO's works have attracted the attention of many young people. 1996, these two students went to St. Petersburg, Russia to find the production factory of LOMO, and persuaded the person in charge of the factory to resume production of Lomo LC-A, which was immediately snapped up by young people all over the world after it resumed production. Thus, the new word Lomography was born. In Hong Kong, there is also an exhibition of lomography-8000 photos taken with LOMO are arranged into a 42-meter-long Lomo wall in the subway station, forming a unique landscape. Due to the shortage of supply, the price of a LOMO LC-A on the LOMO website rose from the initial $30 to nearly $200.

Now Lomo has a new meaning. Lomo is LetOurlivesbeMagicandOpen, which makes our life open and magical. Lomo= Rama, Le Mo, naked cat = Le Mo! Although there are many translated versions, in Hong Kong and Taiwan Province, Lomo fans have given it a proper Chinese name, Le Mo, which is an abbreviated form. The original English text is Letourlifebemagicandopen (meaning to make our life open and magical). In a camera, it refers to a simple and casual style. Today, the word LOMO is not only the abbreviation of Leningrad Optical Instrument Factory, but also represents youth and creativity.

Lomo style pursues nature and shows the demands of modern people, which is the style and personality of our generation. Lomo style was originally a product of foreign countries, and later it gradually became popular in China, and was highly respected by young people, mainly showing an open and magical attitude towards life. Bian Xiao's introduction about lomo style ends today. I hope that friends who are interested in lomo style can learn about lomo style, thus enriching their knowledge, shooting with lomo style, and making themselves a fashionista.
