It was the early 1960s. Mini skirts were swinging into fashion, and Beatlemania was taking the world by storm. In a small manufactory in Kowloon Bay, Hong Kong, engineers were knocking together a little camera that would change the face of photography forever.
The Diana camera was the very definition of lo-fi. It had a plastic lens that produced brilliantly blurry edges and super soft vignetting, and flimsy housing that led to light leaks and watermarks. Each shot was unpredictable, drenched in gorgeous analogue imperfections. Its unique beauty catapulted it to stardom, with professional photographer Mark Sink using it to snap Jean-Michel Basquiat, Grace Jones, and even the inimitable Andy Warhol.
You know what they say, though — nothing lasts forever. In the late 1970s Kodak cameras provided a more conventional approach to casual photography, and production of the Diana slowed and eventually ceased. Nonetheless, the unlikely charm of this 1960s lo-fi beauty lived on. When we got our hands on one back in the early 2000s, we couldn’t believe our luck. Blown away by the mesmerizing images it produced, we got to work on a brand new version. In 2007, we added the Diana+ to our ever-expanding collection of creative cameras.
We kept the strong, saturated colours and soft, moody vignetting that had us head over heels for the original, and added a touch of Lomographic love — a Bulb Mode for long exposures, a Multiple Exposure Mode to layer up unlimited shots on the same frame, a pinhole functionality for lens-less experiments. Now, after 10 years of special editions, creative accessories and millions of incredible pictures, we’re bringing the legendary Diana aesthetic to square format instant photography.

All you need to do to start embracing the unexpected with the Diana Instant Square is follow these three simple steps…
Step One: Choose Your Tier
From every Lomography Diana camera ever created to a trip to Lomography Headquarters in Vienna, our pledge packages are packed with fantastic photography treats. Take a look at the list below and choose your favorite!
Step Two: Choose a Little Something Extra
Push your creativity even further with these amazing extras! We love Kickstarter because it means that we can give you fantastic savings on tons of exciting items. That’s why each of these items can be added to your pledge at up to 30% less than the usual retail price! Divide your shots into segments using the splitzer, get even sharper shots with the 75 mm Diana glass lens, and finetune your shots with a collection of lens filters.
Choose as many as you like by simply adding the amount specified for each of your chosen items to your pledge. For example, if you’ve pledged for the 25% off Classic Camera package at 75 USD, and you’d like to add a splitzer to your pledge at 10 USD, just increase the amount you’ve pledged to 85 USD.
Please don’t forget to send us a message detailing everything you’ve pledged for, and a follow-up message every time you update your pledge. That way we can make sure you receive exactly what you ordered!
Step Three: Sit Back, Relax and Wait
Once you’ve finished topping up your pledge with extras, added the relevant shipping fees for your tier and clicked the “Pledge” button, your pledge will be processed. After the end of the campaign, we’ll send you a survey asking for your shipping address and a list of everything you pledged for. Once you’ve filled this in and sent it back, we’ll get your items in the post as soon as they’re ready. The money you’ve pledged will be reserved on your account, but only booked once the campaign is successfully funded and over.
We love giving you extra goodies. That’s why we’ve got a whole lot of exciting extras and fantastic features lined up for you throughout the campaign. Fasten your seatbelts — because if the Diana is full of surprises, so are we. We’ve got something that’s going to make you see the world through a whole new lens — or without one… Intrigued? Choose a pledge package now!
You love the pinhole. We love the pinhole. And we're determined to make our darling Diana a pinhole — no matter how much of a puzzle it is proving to be. Help us hit the $350,000 mark and we promise we'll make the Diana Instant Square every bit as brilliantly multi-functional as its predecessor!
And as a token of our Lomographic love, we’ll throw in a free inlay filter with every pledge package that includes a Diana Instant Square. Slot this special filter into your camera and all kinds of wacky and wonderful things will appear in your frame. It’ll be unlike anything you’ve ever seen before.
