Daydreaming Around Hong Kong with the Daguerreotype Achromat Art Lens

2 13

Beautiful images are everywhere if you just know where to look. Lomography Hong Kong's very own phyllistc knows this all too well and that's why she took the Daguerreotype Achromat Art Lens for a spin around her favorite places in Hong Kong.

The result? Let's just say that there is magic in the mundane when you have the Daguerreotype Achromat around. Phyllis took home dreamy photographs of people, places, and other wonderful subjects with grace and finesse. We had to do a double-take to understand that they are film photographs and not oil paintings!

Bring back the ethereal aesthetics of pictorialism with the Daguerreotype Achromat Art Lenses. Embellish your shots with beautiful dream-like softness and use the aperture plates to bring out unique bokeh in your shots. This wonderful optic can fit a variety of camera mounts with the help of adapters for hassle-free shooting.

Head over to our Online Shop or visit a Gallery Store near you and treat yourself to a Daguerreotype Achromat Art Lens!
