The 20mm Diana F+ Fisheye Lens

I thought it'll be too wasted to just ship the 35mm back alone all the way from US, hence I added the fisheye lens to accompany it... to make the shipping more worth it. Actually I've been eyeing on it all along! ;)

Each shot yields a 180° circular image on a square print – bursting with the Diana F+’s saturated colours and dreamy atmosphere! An interchangeable plastic Fisheye lens for the Lomography Diana F+ and Diana F+ cameras! With a 20mm focal length and a 180° field of view, this is the world’s first all-plastic interchangeable fisheye lens for a medium format camera!


Here’s what it can do:
  • 180-Degree Field of view: This enormous field of view takes in literally half of the world around you and compacts it into a nice and tight circular image. Barrel distortions twist and bend your subjects around the edges, stretch them towards and away from your lens, and converge their lines towards the center.
  • True Diana F+ Images: This high-quality plastic lens perfectly captures the signature look of Diana F+ images – warm, saturated colors, soft focus, and that special dreamlike feeling.
  • Extreme close-up potential: Not an exercise for the timid - the Fisheye lavishly rewards those who bravely advance within a whisper of their subject. Get right up to their face, and watch their nose get sucked into your lens while their ears and forehead s-l-i-d-e-s backwards. Sharp, beautiful pictures are possible from even the closest quarters.
  • Huge depth of field: Super-wide-angle images like the ones spat out by the Fisheye come with a wonderful bonus: focused sharpness from the front to the rear of your image. Each fisheye image shows massive depth of field, so your subject and background will be nice and crispy clear.

The Diana F+ 35mm Back

After my 1st roll of 120 film, I decided that it'll be too expensive and boring in the long run for the Snowcat to take 120 films only. So I decided to add on the 35mm film option!

  • 2 integrated exposure counters tell you the precise frame you’re on
  • Choose from 4 different image formats
