What is the camera made of? Plastic, or some other material?
Asked by: R
According the the manufacturer, the Lomography LC-Wide Camera is a PU leather covered body made from partially plastic & metal. Most mechanical parts are metal while the top, bottom and front covers are plastic. Generally the build is sturdy and very different from other Lomography cameras like the Diana.
