Taken with the Lomography Belair X 6-12 camera that I first used in week 156 of my 52 film cameras in 52 weeks project:

This is a new medium format camera market by Lomography, there are 2 lenses and 3 formats, the 6cm x 12cm format allows 6 exposures on a roll of 120 film.

Expired Fuji Provia 400X slide film cross-processed at home in the Tetenal C41 kit.

The Belair takes some getting used to, the viewfinder is notoriously innacurate, and having learned to tilt the camera upwards to avoid losing the top of the subject, I've now fallen victim to another quirk, which is that the viewfinder can swivel slightly on its mount, resulting in an off centre composition, I centred the composition on this building, but the finder must have shifted slightly, so I ended up shooting to the right. Another thing to check next time I use it!
