Lomo's cult Soviet compact — the LC-A, 32mm f/2.8, zone focus, program auto, 1984.

The Lomo LC-A is a fixed-lens 35mm compact made by the LOMO factory in Leningrad, introduced in 1984 and loosely based on the Cosina CX-2. It became the camera around which the Lomography movement formed in the 1990s, sold as a cult point-and-shoot rather than a precision instrument. Production of the original Soviet/Russian model ran into the early 2000s before the redesigned LC-A+ replaced it.

This is a zone-focus compact with a fixed 32mm f/2.8 Minitar lens. Focusing is set by a four-position zone lever (roughly 0.8m, 1.5m, 3m and infinity) rather than a rangefinder. Exposure is programmed automatic using a CdS meter, with an aperture-priority-style automatic shutter that can run to long times in low light. It is fully battery-dependent and takes three LR44/SR44 cells; there is no built-in flash, only a hotshoe.

The LC-A suits street and travel shooters who want a pocketable camera and accept its lo-fi character: strong vignetting, saturated colour and unpredictable long exposures in dim light. Zone focusing is quick once learned but easy to misjudge. It is valued for the look it produces rather than for sharpness or metering accuracy, and rewards shooting with the flow rather than fussing over settings.

On the used market check that the meter and automatic shutter still respond, as the electronics and the long-exposure circuit are the common failure points. Confirm the zone-focus lever moves through all four positions and the aperture blades are clean. Inspect the lens for haze and fungus, check the battery compartment for corrosion, and look at the light seals and film-door foam, which perish with age. Verify the frame counter and rewind work smoothly.
