What do you get when you combine a La Sardina + Colorsplash + Digital Harinezumi? Well no such thing exists but it was so cool to be able to experience using one in my dream. Yup, it was all a dream. I remember being able to configure it and even take pictures, it was so surreal, and then I woke up. :(

This is the La Sardina El Capitan it's a 35mm sardine can camera. It has a wide-angle lens, multiple exposure capabilities and rewind dial. It also comes with Fritz the Blitz, Lomography’s most powerful flash ever!
Here are some sample photos taken with the La Sardina from lomography.com:
The Colorsplash is just like any regular 35mm film camera, but what's special about it is you can add a splash of color to your photos with the use of it's colored filters. It comes with 12 tinted gel filters, 3 of which are already built in and with 9 more colors to choose from, you can surely make your photos more fun, colorful and vibrant.

And last but not the least, the Digital Harinezumi, it's a retro camera designed by Superheadz in Tokyo.
The retro camera features 2 Megapixel sensor and captures 1600×1200 still images and 640×480 video clips without sound. But a good thing is, there's now a Digital Harinezumi 2, improved with 3 megapixel image sensor, customized to offer sharp images and with audio features. Here's a sample clip:
So back to my dream, basically my dream camera had the body of a La Sardina El Capitan, it came with tinted filters like that of a Colorsplash camera and could take short clips like a Digital Harinezumi. It's like the perfect hipster/lomographer camera sent from heaven! Imagine the amount of film you could save and the awesome effects while maintaining the retro vibe of the photos this camera could capture! Something like this is too good to be true and the features kind of don't go together, like multiple exposures on a digital camera? On a DSLR maybe but with my dream camera? LOL. Well, my dream camera will just stay as it is, a dream. But maybe someday somebody can invent a camera with such features. :)
