Just saw a review on this camera VISTAQUEST VQ5090 , is there any way to get it from US ? to ship to malaysia ?
Never heard of it, but judging from what shows up in a google (
for example) this looks like just another digicam in a waterproof housing, good for taking snaps while splashing around in water but not diving. There are a bunch of options like this -- whether it's
waterpooof cases for digicams or the cameras specifically designed to be water-resistant like the Olympus Stylus and Pentax Optio lines (and that's not counting proper underwater housing and dive cameras that are good to 40+ m depth).
But that is nothing like what the Lomo and Holga are. It will produce normal photographs, not anything like what the Lomo and Holga produce. They aren't waterproof (at least not that I've heard) but they do create some odd, artsy photos. They key thing about them, however, is that they're chemical cameras, with real film. They aren't digital at all. If you want to take the results digital, you have to scan them... and then you might as well just
fake it.
