Ultra-Wide camera lensPhotographic accessory, camera and lens manufacturer Lomography has returned to Kickstarter once again to launch their new Lomography Atoll Ultra-Wide 2.8/17 Art Lens. Created to provide photographers with a “brand new perspective”, offering a lens designed for full-frame mirrorless cameras and compatible with analogue and digital M mounts. With an impressive 103° field of view and 17 mm focal length, your photographs will exaggerate relative size and boast dramatic depth for “intense, immense, impactful imagery” combined with classic Lomography vignetting, colors and saturation.

Early bird pledges are now available for the inventive project from roughly $399 or £294 (depending on current exchange rates). If the Lomography Atoll campaign successfully raises its required pledge goal and manufacturing progresses smoothly, worldwide shipping is expected to take place sometime around August 2021. To learn more about the Lomography Atoll ultra wide camera lens project play the promotional video below.

“Stop still amid the sea of city-slickers coursing through the gritty streets, wade deep into the dark-green forest and swim among the towering pines, cast off into the sandy desert, voyage into vast open vistas, surf the sidewalk, cruise through the crowds and glide along the great open road. Take a deep breath, dive in with your eyes wide open, set your sights on new ultra-wide possibilities and drench every inch of your shots in stunning detail with the Lomography Atoll Ultra-Wide Art Lens.”
