Product Description
This is the one and only incredible four-lens-photo ActionSampler. With one shot you get a series of four images on one print and a macro-movie to be relished online! It is robust and ultra-heated, the ideal gift.
Amazon.com Product Description
The Lomographic CyberSampler 2.0 chrome camera uses four separate lenses to capture four unique photos of each scene on one frame of film. The CyberSampler 2.0 takes the photos a fraction of a second apart, creating an "action sample" that shows the sequence of motion. This gives you something akin to "movie stills" that can even be set on your computer to flash like a mini-movie. (Click on the More Pictures link at the top of this page to see sample photos that were taken with the CyberSampler.)

Brought to you by the same Lomographic Society folks who introduced the world to the famed Lomo Kompakt Automat camera, the CyberSampler shares the original Lomo's wacky, creative image--as evidenced in the glossy, photo-filled booklet that comes with the camera and which is a work of art in itself. The CyberSampler is also a study in styling with its off-white, milk-colored case. It doesn't have a flash and sports only a flip-up square to frame your photos. "Shoot from the hip," is the driving philosophy behind the Lomographic Society. Everything with this camera is manual, including film loading, winding, and rewinding, and there are no settings to fiddle with.

Make no mistake, as the booklet blithely states, "The [CyberSampler] is not a finely tuned piece of apparatus made only of the finest in hand-crafted modern materials. It's made of plastic." In short, this means you shouldn't expect sharp, detailed pictures. However, you can expect truly unique, fun, and often striking sequences of photos. The CyberSampler uses any 35mm film but needs plenty of light (outdoor photos turn out the best), so if you want to use it indoors, we recommend using a high-speed film (ISO 400 or higher).

The CyberSampler is a blast to use, and it makes a great gift. While it has plenty of limitations, its distinctive way of seeing the world is fun and offbeat.

Pros: Captures action with four photos on one frame Easy to use Colorful, unique styling Uses normal 35mm film (2 rolls included) Cons: Cheaply constructed plastic camera Needs lots of light Relatively low-quality, blurry pictures

4 out of 5 stars Fun item.......2001-11-10

This camera is fun but remember...it's basically a toy. I bought it for snowboarding trips buy I don't know if it would function too well after the inevitable falls! Now I use it when ever i'm out and about. Mostly park activities, kids, pets, subway trains and street scenes.
Experiment with manual zoom (your arm) and with different film speeds. Fun is what matters!

4 out of 5 stars Free Film!.......2001-08-30

Mine included free 800 asa film! Did not read that in the descrition. The price is high! Wish it was cheaper! It is like a 35mm automatic camera without the batteries and a flash. I plan to have negatives only developed. Hope to save on the cost and then have my scanner that can scan in negatives to the computer. Scanner is the Canon mfr. CanoScan D660u. (is a USB connector). I believe it is avail here at Amazon.com. I have also heard of a Fuji 1x use 8 lens camera for golfing swing analysis. I wonder if it is cheaper!

3 out of 5 stars Fun, but expect a lot of ýnot so greatý shots.......2001-07-15

I bought a CyberSampler 2.0 Chrome camera this spring and shot a few films. This camera can produce some nice movement shots. I recommend children, pets etc. You should get up close and remember to keep the camera still for the whole shot process. One should experiment with film with high ASA numbers. This is, of course, a novelty camera, and be prepared to "waste" film. The physical make (case, etc.) of the camera is very cheap and plastic indeed, but mine works as it should.

5 out of 5 stars cyber cyber cyber cyber friend.......2001-04-21

A lot of fun. This camera is the updated version of the Lomographic Society's action sampler. I have them all, I have to admit, I am an absolut Lomo fanatic. Finally I am a good fotographer!!! This camera is much more sturdy and more reliable than the first version of the action sampler. I love to take my kids and dog out in the fields and jump around taking pictures of action and motion. Or take it in the city and take pictures criusing along the boulevards. Thanks Lomographic Society, you brought the joy back in my once upon boring X-mas and Easter shots.
