Blackbird, Fly: Plastic vintage-inspired camera uses 35mm film

The “Blackbird, Fly” is an all-new, all-analog camera from Japan’s Superheadz that recreates the square images and down-looking viewfinder of an old Rolleiflex, but does so on 35mm film. Which I’m sure is fun and makes fine, interesting images and everything, but would drive me nuts. I’ll make my blurs and smudges the old fashioned way, thanks: by being a horrible photographer.

But if you feel the need, the “Blackbird, Fly” is going to cost around $100. I’m sure someone will import a few for our Lomo-addled photographer friends soon enough.
