Makes me wonder about doing something similar with a 620 folder. I love these kind of things. Huss has done a great job of composition. Beautiful.
The Lomo LC-Wide, like nothing else.

This is the best!
Amazing
Thanks for all the positive comments! I bought mine used off ebay where you can find them at about 1/2 the new price. It’s the kind of camera that is given as a gift or bought on a whim so is used once then put away… to appear on ebay.
Most are missing the half and square frames, which is not surprising as they are tiny little things. Lomo customer service came through for me and found me a set.
I have also done this sort of thing w an old Zeiss 120 folder - you need the kind of camera that uses the red window to index the film advance as you can then ignore that!
I used the Zeiss to create this image reflecting the madness of Venice Beach, California.
The advantage of the Lomo LC Wide is that it makes it very easy to do, and the auto exposure works really well. Before I was made aware of this camera I was going to modify a Kodak Ektar H35 (that new Kodak half frame camera) by cutting out/opening up the built in inner frame mask. So that is a possibility.

I did it once by accident with my Lomo Belair (shoots 6x12 on 120). It ended up being extremely ironic because I was taking pictures of my then-partner at the pyramids at Teotihuacan. Two of the three frames had him in it, the third frame was just the pyramid without him in front. Subsequently he passed away. I printed a cropped version of it for his family to have without the blank third.This can be done with a Holga 120. I'm unsure if it can be done as well as Huss has done it. I did it by accident with three frames - just don't wind it on to the full extent necessary to separate the frames.
I've also done it accidentally with a 6x9 folder. Same deal. That one was only two frames and wasn't as horrible a waste of film as my Holga mistake was because I was documenting a house build and got the entire front of the building across two conjoined frames.
If memory serves, Lomo's Diana F+ gives specific instructions on doing this.
Again, though, you need Huss' artistry to get the results seen here!
There are plenty of MOSTLY early cameras --16mm, 17.5mm, 35mm, and 120 -- where the shutter is cocked separately from the film advance. Any of these cameras could be used to accomplish this approach -- partial film advance. (With reloaded 110 cassettes, this happened all the time, and is generally undesirable) And, of course, cameras with manual adjustment of the exposure might be helpful in certain circumstances.

I love the absolute visual chaos in this shot. It makes you keep looking into it over and over again.
Fab LC-Wide photos, Huss.You could be Lomo’s ambassador encouraging sales.
Tempted to place an ad … Wanted $10 LC-Wide for personal use (I’m in the U.K. so £s would be more convenien).
Thanks! Definitely get one for 10 GBP (my keyboard does not have the UK pound sign!)
I mean, sure you could get a Leica for that, but Leica's don't let you overlap shots intentionally.

This is spreading like a virus! Is there a vaccine to prevent it?
It's not a question of multiple exposure per se, but being able to advance the film gradually, even if it is only in 1/2 steps.
A design flaw or a stroke of genius?
I guess it’s possible to modify one of the supplied gates in the Lomo Sprocket Rocket, but film advance would be guesswork for micro-clicks. Normally the advance is wound until the white dot appears, hence the unpredictably for partial advancing.
With consistency.

Better to remain silent and be thought an idiot than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Wonderful! Looks like a cross between Estes and Rauschenberg....(Times Square, 2004 R.E + Collection, 1954 R.R.)
That’s absolutely fantastic, but begs the question how the image was constructed.
I’ve not heard of Estes or Rauschenberg before… time for a Google I believe.
Love that! The key, I think, is to start off with a scene that is already very busy. Then it becomes nuts and sucks you in.
Here's another I took with my Zeiss Nettar, in San Francisco.
Exactly. The Lomo does all the heavy lifting on the technical side.

These are great fun and very interesting.
I expect, without knowing for sure, that their colour is incredibly important for their success.
But I'd be intrigued to see how black and white might come out.

I put a little 'how-to' in the Lounge that shows how the image was created: https://www.photrio.com/forum/threads/multiple-exposure-photography-with-found-object-images.195738/
