The Daguerreotype Achromat Art Lens Launch Party

We hope Louis Daguerre is proud because we sure are! We’re so happy to announce that our new Daguerreotype Achromat 2.9/64 Art Lens is officially here! Thank you to all the backers that supported our Kickstarter campaign, we made it and went beyond our initial goals. Now we’d like to invite you to the official launch party because we believe that a celebration is in order.

Join us as we welcome the newest member of our growing Art Lens family with a party that you shouldn’t miss. We’re hosting parties at our different Lomography Gallery Stores around the world starting on November 18, 2016, with a few surprises for you, our most distinguished guests!

While the night away and enjoy these activities that we have in store for you:

• Witness the Daguerreotype Achromat in action and try out its silky soft focus and razor-sharp precision for yourself
• Meet established photographers and community members who had the chance to shoot first with the Daguerreotype Achromat and pick their brains on how to effectively use it on your own photographic adventures
• Learn more about the history of photography from some of our special guests and the Lomography team
• Get a chance to see the brand new exhibition: “Legacy: The Daguerreotype Achromat in the 21st Century” that features the works of international and local photographers

Come one, come all! We also have refreshing beverages for everyone!
