    Love the comparisons! I’ve been hesitant to try Lomo bc I’ve only tried their experiment films. This video has proved to be a reason for me to try it.

    I totally know what you mean. I didn't shoot lomo 800 for years but it's super solid. A little underrated I'd say! Definitely worth a try!

    Thx for the review. I agree with almost all of your points. I never buy Lomo because it’s way too expensive for 35 mm here. Keep it up!

    I avoided lomo for a while too, if I wanted 800 I would just go with Portra. I think Portra is still my main option but lomo did have really fun colors if you're into that! but yea 800 speed film in general is so expensive :(

    Gotta get me some lomo800, as much as I love slow films, its feels fun and whimsical (?) to load fast films in my camera. Great comparison, if porty800 is ever 'on sale' then id give it a go. Cinestill will always be that blooming halation night on the town with a tripod type of fun film for me. Great vid, live this style too. 🎉

    Thanks Patrick!! I'm glad you liked the video! I know exactly what you mean about Cinestill, whenever I use it it's like a speciality film. Nothing really beats Portra 800 imo, but lomo is great, I'd definitely recommend it! If you like slow films it will be super fun to shoot. that's how I feel whenever I load 3200 ISO I just run around like crazy taking any picture I want cause I'm amazed at how much more light there is to shoot with 😂

    I suspect Lomo 800 is the 800 film you find in Kodak disposable cameras.

    I think you might be right, it could be a good way to get Lomo 800 without paying the full price :)
