i always liked the camera body of the lomo lca and i didn't enjoy how expensive the lomography minitar lens was. i wanted to replicate the experience of shooting with the lca with sliding lens cover, and lever actuated aperture and focus.
the rehousing features the iconic sliding lens cover, lever actuated aperture and focus, standard LOMO or classic ЛОМО face plate
tools used: simens solidedge, klipper based ender 3, various drills and taps
available on: Fuji X, Sony E, Canon RF, and Nikon Z

field testing videos for me are always about results. as such my videos typically have no music and only include natural sounds as to not effect the perception of the viewer. an unbiased showcase of what people can photograph with the rehousing.
the basics always start with a very rough idea to correctly identify the flange focal distance (ffd). from there it’s just chasing a thread or feeling until the final design.
