Lomo'Instant Automat Glass

Oren Grad · Mar 17, 2017

Glass lens, very wide focal length, the rest is more or less the usual Automat feature set:

Lomography:

The lens cap of the Lomo’Instant Automat Glass doubles as a Remote Control Shutter Release.

How does that work?

I've just looked over the gumph as well AgX and I too can't fathom it out???

Someone / anyone know and can explain it to us???

The lens cap is an infrared transmitter.

Now I see (was slow on the uptake again...)

That is a nice idea.
It even yields the choice between a M and B button !
(If only the lettering of these buttons was better.)

This way you can lose both the cap and the remote at the same time...

Typically I'm the guy that considers a glass half empty...

But I rather have just one piece to look for/after, then two things dangling around somewhere.

From the camera having that remote release one can deduce that it got a tripod mount too. Added by its flashless exposure mode it seems far better than the Instax Wide in that respect.
If it only had the larger format...
