Crosswalk

A new social project: shooting from the hip at the same crosswalk, near the market of my city Como, using a lens from wide angle to normal (28 - 50mm range)

    I have one of those cameras! Wanting to put a test roll through it, after getting the light seals done. What do you think of it?

    @lizkoppert XA, XA2 and XA3 are great and tiny cameras for street photography: very reliable, quiet shutter, small, with a nice lens! Change the seal and you have one of the best pocket camera ever!

    Sweet. Bought the camera a while ago, and noticed how bad the light seals were; so I immediately took it down to the camera lab to send away. Picked it up (along with my Chaika 2, Elikon 35CM and Lomo LC-A) last week. Am really looking forward to shooting with them all, now the light seals are replaced :) If the XA-2's anything like the LC-A, I'm going to enjoy it!

    @lizkoppert Changing the seal is very easy; I always buy the seal (rubber sheets) on ebay. It is a different camera from LC-A. No lines distortions at the border, very small vignetting, great reliability, great metering www.lomography.hk/magazine/320916-cameras-in-depth-handling…

    I got mine professionally done. More expensive, but also more convenient. There's a guy in Christchurch (I think) that does it. Will be interesting to see how they compare...
