A new movie camera launched today: Lomokino

[grainy]

A few weeks after 35mm camera production stops, Lomography (a toy camera empire) has released the Lomokino, a hand-cranked toy movie camera that shoots 35mm still film at a 3-5 fps rate for fun, mostly. It crops the image a la a half frame camera, so you get 144 images per each 35mm roll. (yes - the kind of film you can still buy at the drugstore, at least where I live).
I've said before that it's the hipster crowd who will help keep film alive, and this I guess, is the first example of how this may manifest itself.
There's no projection option, but it comes with a viewer, and the whole thing is manually cranked; viewer and camera.
Granting it's not the same as a normal frame rate camera, but it's the idea -- the idea that they think this will sell and it's newly manufactured. (it acctually looks like a slight retool of a med format still camera body)

I'd be curious to see modifications of this thing -- to take longer loads of film, to increase the frame rate... lots of clever people out there!!
