Lomo LC-A Minitar-1 Art Lens Review
In today’s episode, I review the Lomo LC-A Minitar-1 Art Lens. This 32mm f/2.8 Lomography Art lens is an exact copy of the lens built into the 1984 Lomo LC-A compact camera. It allegedly comes with punchy colors, a deliberately strong vignette and extremely compact form factor. It natively supports the Leica M mount but there are also adapters available for Nikon Z, Canon R or Sony E mounts if you prefer using it on a digital camera. Lomography sent me this lens for a review and, of course, I am more than happy to take an honest look at it.
For some initial test shots, I took the lens with me on a trip to Berlin capturing one roll of Ilford FP4 as well as one roll of Kodak Gold 200.
In addition, the colors on the front reminded me of the famous visual identity of the Olympic Games in 1972 in Munich. The visual direction was developed by graphic design legend Otl Aicher and there are still some remnants to be found in and around Munich. I wanted to explore these with this art lens to commemorate the 50th anniversary of these Olympic Games. I only found a few items and to me these are rather documentary or reportage photos.
By the way, I first took notice of this lens thanks to a review over at Phil Knall’s YouTube channel and his moody street shots in the Tokio rain. I can recommend taking a look at his review as well.
