Lomography LOMO LC-A+ Manual página 15

If you want to Lomograph into the distance, then push the Focus Lever [17] all the way
down, right down to the bottom (• = infinity = everything further away than 3 m or 10').
Now you just have to practice: up is close, down is far away, the middle is in-between (the
length of one to two people away), up, down, up, down, until setting the focus of your
LC-A+ becomes second nature to you. You'll soon see that you're much faster than with
any other camera and you can decide exactly when you take a particular shot and what's in
focus. Take special care to set the focus properly as the light gets lower outside or if you're
shooting indoors.

The LC-A+ is a 100% automatic exposure dream machine. Using its Light Meter [9], it
looks at the scene in front of the lens and automatically sets the shutter speed and aperture
for a correct exposure. For the old-school LOMO people, you'll notice that the old
exposure setting (including Mr. "A") is long gone. Say goodbye to mistakes and accidentally
shooting a whole roll of film at f/16. In very bright conditions, the LC-A+ can fire its
shutter at a speed up to 1/500 per second. In low light, it can keep its shutter open for as
long as necessary to expose the shot. Read on for more about that.

By now, you know the shooting routine. Set the ISO, set the focus, turn the Advance Wheel
[7] and hit the Shutter Release [2].
