"Be An Explorer" Campaign: Petzval 175 Exhibition

To celebrate the 175th anniversary of the legendary Petzval Lens, Lomography teamed up with Fashion Walk to curate a visually breathtaking Lomographic exhibition. 13 portrait photographs taken by photographers and artists around the world are exhibited. This is also the first stop on the Petzval 175 Tour . Let’s take a look at the Petzval 175 Exhibition!

When you step into the 2/F of Fashion Walk in Causeway Bay, you’ll see the awesome gallery and four pillars at the front.

And when you step a little closer, you will see different lenses in the four pillars. The left one shows the original legendary Petzval lens!

From the left, the 2nd and 3rd pillars show the Petzval 58 Bokeh Control Art Lens and Lomography Petzval 85 Art Lens. Unlike old Petzval Lenses which will only work with larger format analogue cameras, the New Petzval 85 Lens is designed to work with Canon EF and Nikon F mount cameras. You can even create amazing DSLR movies with the lens!

You can find the Russar + Art Lens, the New Jupiter 3+ Lens, and the Lomo LC-A Minitar-1 Lens in the right pillar. All three lenses are recalculated and reproduced by Lomography.

As previously mentioned, Hong Kong, being the first stop on the Petzval 175 Tour, showcased 13 portrait photographs taken by photographers and artists around the world. Are you curious about the Petzval 175 Exhibition? Here are some pictures!

In today’s busy society, continuous and repetitive life patterns always lead us to sometimes feel lost in the midst of it all. Lomography Hong Kong has teamed up with Fashion Walk to create a new analogue photography exhibition.

• Date: 8 July to 31 August
• Venue: Fashion Walk , Causeway Bay, Hong Kong
