Diana F 120 Analog Viewfinder
The Diana F was a rebuilt of the original Diana, a toy 120 film camera crafted entirely of plastic originally manufactured in Hong Kong in the 60's to the 70's.
Originally marketed as an inexpensive novelty gift item, the Diana was later used by professional photographers to take soft focus, impressionistic photographs somewhat reminiscent of the Pictorialist Period of artistic photography, but utilizing contemporary themes and concepts. As a cult artistic tool of avant-garde and lo-fi photographers, the Diana was quiet a success. Images are raw & gritty, with a character all their own, which simply cannot be duplicated by any other cameras. The Diana rose to prominence as one of the sought-after cult analog cameras from the late 70's onward.
