Lomo LC-A with black and white film

I put a roll of Ilford XP2 400 ASA film in the Lomo LC-A. The film is processed in color CN 41 chemical in the one hour labs

Results were horrible! I don't know what happened, the film was under or over exposed, lots of vignetting light leaks and low contrast.

 

Lomo LC-A, some more from the first film

The LC-A is a very compact camera and a joy to work with it.

My camera has some light leaks, I must fix it later..

Here are some more samples from the Kodak Colorplus 200ASA film.

At the closest distance, 0.8m 

At night you must press the shutter and wait until it clicks again when closing while the camera is steady!

Lomo LC-A, compact and fast

This is a small compact Soviet camera. It has a 32mm lens, that is wide at f2.8, and an automatic exposure with a lever set to A. If the lever is set to other apertures it defaults to flash or manual exposure.

 

 There is a another lever to the left that selects the distance, 0.8, 1.5, 3 meters and infinity. Very simple! The automatic exposure system is very accurate and can easily take night pictures with the shutter open for some minutes! but there is no provision for an extension cord.

 

 I took some pictures with a roll of kodak Colorplus 200, it proved that there is a light leak somewhere I must take care of.. Pictures are looking normal to me, I see no Lomo effect, other than the light leak.
