    A retro camera with an artistic eye

    There are workhorse digital cameras that churn out in-focus shots like McDonald’s churns out Big Macs. And then there are cameras that leave a few things up to chance, favouring atmosphere and beautiful flaws over megapixels. The new Lomography Belair X 6-12 Jetsetter camera is one of the first to combine the best of both. The medium format camera produces seriously high-resolution photos with a more artistic eye. You can shoot panoramic and square shots in addition to standard sizes, change lenses for versatility and produce super long exposures via a bulb setting. And the retro James Bond appeal of its leather-wrapped body is just as pretty as the pictures it creates.
