3 out of 5 stars Fun, but frustrating.   October 13, 2008
I've had this flash for over a year now. I use it all the time and it's a lot of fun. I mostly use it with my LCA. That said, it is kind of a piece of crap. It's broken a couple times and I've had to take it apart to straighten out all the little filters when they get crunched up inside. It is currently being held together with gaffers tape.

If you just want to have some fun taking colorful film pictures out at a bar or a party or something - I would recommend the Colorsplash camera, although it will probably break, too. Just keep your receipt, most lomo products have a one year warranty. The Colorsplash camera is a lot of fun and a lot less complicated than the LCA/Colorsplash flash combo. Especially if you're drinking.



5 out of 5 stars Too much fun   January 15, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I just got this, and it's too much fun. I don't own a Lomo, but I'm using it on my Canon and Nikon DSLR cameras.

I do recommend that you remove the battery when stowing it in your bag - it's too easy to turn off and on. Other than that it's a neat toy for the $25 I paid.



5 out of 5 stars Lomo Colorsplash - Really fun with Other Cameras   October 24, 2007
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

Don't forget you can use this thing on any DSLR or film SLR witha hotshoe or with a synch adapter. You can also put a standard camera on 'bulb' and fire the flash manually using a bunch of different colors. Just reduce the aperture say 4 stops and fire the flash five or six times in different locations and different colors. Since you can see your results on the screen it's a really powerful little addition to picture taking. Also don't forget you can just use a slave trigger to make the thing light up a backdrop or use it as a hair highlight on a flash stand along with more traditional studio flash units. Yeah - it's no different from a colored gel on a studio flash unit, but it is more portable and it's cheap enough to tape on a stick on location where studio lights are out of the question.


5 out of 5 stars Inexpensive, very effective, fun!   October 15, 2007

I'd seen someone on Flickr that had recently gotten one for their D200 and looking at the results raised my interest. The price is what cinched it for me and after using it a fair bit today, I was delighted. It looks a bit weird on my D200, but it works great, on camera or off.

It's one of the most fun photographic tools I've ever laid my hands on, not to mention one of the most inexpensive. The cost:fun ratio is very much in its favor - get one, you won't be disappointed.



4 out of 5 stars splash of fun   September 27, 2007

This is definitely something to have for fun. It fits the standard hot shoe so you can use it on most cameras. however, you won't get much of an effect when you use it on digital cameras--it only washes out the image, and depending on what color you use, you can't exactly tell you used anything different. It's really intended for 35mm film. Other than that, I love the little guy.
