Ever wanted to learn about the inner workings of an analog camera? Ever wanted to build one yourself? Lomography’s fun new Konstruktor gives you the chance! After a few clicks and screws, you’ll have your own fully-working 35mm camera with a top-down viewfinder to see what you shoot as well as a multiple exposure function, bulb setting for long exposures and a detachable 50mm f/10 Lens.

Spotted this cool Retro Camera-themed iPhone Case over at the Nylon Shop ($36). It’s available for iPhone 4/4S & 5. Looks like the artist Alii Fuerza also has one left at her etsy store for a little cheaper too.

Lim Heng Swee aka @ilovedoodle is Malaysian illustrator and graphic designer who makes you smile with nearly every print or tee he designs. The Photographer ($30) is no different, just pure photo fun. While we have a ton of our own camera art, this print would be a fun addition to our collection.

We’re in luv with San Francisco illustrator Lisa Congdon‘s work. Especially her Photography-inspired journal that was recently released by Compendium for a cool $6.95.

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and Lomo has another Vday themed camera this year, the fun fabric covered Diana Love Letters for a cool $99.

As with other Diana F+ cameras it features the Diana F+ lens which creates dreamy, lo-fi photos on 120 film. It’s got two Shutter-Speeds: N for normal daytime/flash or B for long exposures indoor/nighttime. It also has two image sizes: 12 full-frame square shots 5.2 x 5.2cm or 16 smaller square images – 4.2 x 4.2cm. Get your analogue lover a fun new camera this holiday.

New to our Must-have list is the recently released Belair X 6-12 from Lomography. It’s a modern vintage throwback camera that you can’t ignore.

It comes in 3 models available for pre-order now, the Globe-trotter, the Jetsetter and the all black City Slicker. Each camera boasts auto-exposure capabilities, two inter-changeable lenses (90mm & 58mm), & bellows for easy folding.

One of the coolest things about this vintagy 120 film shooter is that it can shoot three aspect ratios— a square 6×6, a standard 6×9, and the 6-12 panorama. Other notables include zone focusing, support ISO film from 50 to 1600, a standard hot-shoe mount, and the Bulb mode and double exposure shooting modes you’d expect from Lomography.

Here a few sample images from the cameras:

The cameras are currently in short supply so order soon (globe-trotter already sold out), they’re guaranteeing delivery by December 19th for most countries.
