Lomography’s New DigitaLIZA
credits: Lomography
Lomography is re-releasing two film scanning kits designed to make digitizing film photos simpler. The DigitaLIZA+ ($74.99) lets you scan 35mm and 120 film using a smartphone or digital camera. It comes with an improved backlight panel for even lighting and a modular design that makes it easy to scan special formats like overlapping exposures and sprocket-hole shots.
The DigitaLIZA Max ($99) builds on that by adding a smartphone stand, making scanning more portable. It’s designed for both home use and on-the-go setups, and if you prefer using a digital camera, you can swap the stand out. It also supports panoramic shots and experimental film formats.
Both kits are compatible with Lomo DigitaLIZA LAB, an online tool for converting and lightly editing film scans. Originally launched in 2022, the kits have been redesigned with a more compact build and better lighting, making it easier for film photographers to bring their shots into the digital world.

Fujifilm Sees Potential In Compact Cameras
Cameras are getting pricey, and Fujifilm knows it. That’s why they’re thinking about more affordable options for young people who might otherwise grab a second-hand camera.
According to Yuji Igarashi (Fujifilm's Divisional Manager), a lot of new Fujifilm users aren’t coming from other cameras—they’re coming straight from smartphones. That means they want something different, not just another expensive model. Fujifilm sees a real demand for compact cameras, especially since older digital cameras are blowing up thanks to their nostalgic vibe. If they can make a new one with that same charm, they think it could be a hit.
At the end of the day, they believe using a real camera just feels better—more intentional, more emotional. Nothing official yet, but it sounds like Fujifilm might have something up its sleeve.
