Turn film negatives to digital images w/ this contraption

Thinking of dumping your old 35mm negatives? Before you do, you might want to check out this Kickstarter-funded gizmo called Lomography Smartphone Scanner and maybe you’ll have a change of hearts afterwards.

As its name implies, this recently announced gizmo allows users to view their pictures that they captured using a film camera on their iPhone and other supported Android smartphones. It works by using your handset’s camera to snap a photo of the negative and your phone can then turn it into positive via a downloadable app.

The Lomography Smartphone Scanner currently retails for USD40PHP 2,347INR 3,390EUR 38CNY 291, but is slated to cost a little bit higher once it reaches the market.

yugatech’s becoming a shitty tech site. It’s not bringing the latest and has unoriginal posts.

Hey there! This is kind of off topic but I need some help from
an established blog. Is it difficult to set up your own blog?
I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty fast. I’m thinking about creating my own but I’m not sure where to start. Do you have any ideas or suggestions? Appreciate it

These minerals are actually crucial to the wellbeing
of your human body. The three levels of filtration process within the device should be enough to put your worries to rest.
Since then, things have been going steadily downhill where
reverse osmosis water filters are concerned.
