Lomografi

Lomografi adalah sebuah bagian dari fotografi, fotografi menggunakan sebuah kamera khusus yang disebut dengan kamera LOMO. LOMO adalah singkatan dari Leningradskoye Optiko-Mechanichesckoye Obyedinenie (Leningrad Optical Mechanical Amalgamation) merupakan sebuah pabrik lensa yang berada di St.Petersburg, Rusia; yang memproduksi lensa untuk alat-alat kesehatan (seperti untuk lensa mikroskop), alat-alat persenjataan, dan lensa kamera. Meski lahir di Rusia, perkembangan kamera Lomo jauh lebih pesat di Austria. Di Austria perkembangan Lomografi sangatlah pesat karena lomografi merupakan suatu trademark komersil untuk produk-produk yang berkaitan dengan fotografi yaitu Lomographische AG. Lomografi dapat kita sebut dengan seni kreasi murni karena kita dapat memotret suatu obyek dengan kamera manual yang apa adanya. Meskipun alat ini masih tergolong berteknologi sederhana, namun kita dapat menghasilkan foto yang unik dan berbeda dari foto pada umumnya.

 

Teknik Lomografi

Lomografi adalah sebuah fenomena dalam fotografi. Lomografi menabrak segala aturan yang ada, meninggalkan aturan-aturan baku dalam fotografi. Lomografi memiliki banyak jenis kamera, tapi semuanya memiliki konsep yang sama, jangan pedulikan aturan. Sementara dalam fotografi konvensional, banyak aturan-aturan baku yang harus dipatuhi, seperti speed, shutter, dll. Lomo itu bebas kita dituntut untuk memotret dengan fun. Berbeda dengan kamera biasa seperti SLR yang membutuhkan teknik-teknik tertentu, Lomo tekniknya itu bebas. Hasilnya sangat subyektif. Apa pun hasilnya, itulah Lomo. Orang tertarik ikut Lomo karena tidak ada keterbatasan. Kita kadang bisa membidik lewat viewfinder atau bisa bagaimana saja karena tidak ada batasan yang mengikat. Untuk sementara tinggalkan sejenak teori-teori fotografi dan mari kita mencoba menggunakan Lomografi. Hasil yang didapat juga tak pernah bisa diduga. Inilah bukti kamera bisa bekerja dengan cara yang berbeda. Inilah pemberontakan terhadap teknologi tinggi dan high definiton dalam fotografi. Fotografi memang dapat menghasilkan foto yang bagus, sementara lomografi menghasilkan foto yang unik.

10 Tips Memotret dengan Kamera Lomo

1. Take your LOMO everywhere you go.

Bawalah kamera Lomo anda kemanapun anda pergi, karena dimana pun anda dapat menemukan obyek foto yang tak terduga.

2. Use it anytime - day or night.

Pakailah kamera Lomo anda tanpa batas. Pakai kamera Lomo anda baik siang maupun malam, kapan saja di berbagai situasi dan kondisi.

3. Lomography is not an interference in your life, but a part of it.

Jadikanlah Lomografi sebagai bagian dari diri anda dan nikmatilah waktu anda memotret suatu obyek dengan kamera Lomo.

4. Shoot from the hip.

5. Approach the objects of your lomographic desire as close as possible.

Dekati obyek foto anda sedekat mungkin selain karena kamera Lomo umumnya tidak ada zoom, harus ada feel tersendiri antara anda dengan obyek foto.

6. Don’t think.

Jangan berpikir, gunakan hati dan penglihatan anda.

7. Be fast.

Cepat dalam memotret suatu obyek foto, anda tidak perlu banyak berpikir/berteknik.

8. You don’t have to know beforehand what you’ve captured on film.

Anda tidak perlu terlalu memikirkan gambar seperti apa yang akan anda ambil.

9. You don’t have to know afterwards, either.

Anda juga tidak perlu memikirkan bagaimana hasil dari gambar yang telah anda ambil.

10. Don’t worry about the rules.
