what did we LOVE: SMENA 8M

SMENA 8M

(THANK YOU SO MUCH ♥)


first model made in 1952 in the USSR, 8M version in the late 70's, lightweight plastic and aluminum with coated "Triplet" lens and manual shutter speed, aperture and focal distance control.

"far from a toy, the smena a true LOMO - a quirky little hombre that begs you to have fun, be spontaneous, and shoot the hell out of everything around you."

BKLYN: fred flare

fred flare: cute cute cute little store in brooklyn at leonard st and meserole ave intersection. craftsy artsy books. hand drawn tags with little flowers smiling on them. cups with which you can pretend you're married, sunglasses of all colors and types galore and long dangly necklaces of keys, harmonicas, and such.

amazingly friendly salespeople that were happy to talk to us about parsons, art, their wonderful tiny online shopping turned actual boutique store and whatever we were perusing.

also sells lomography cameras, a variety of clothing and printed totes, gadgets you feel you want but don't really need, quirky clever stationary and odd trinkets you're not sure who invents.
