The Lomographic Society has collaborated with the band The White Stripes to create two limited-edition cameras. The Jack Holga and Meg Diana+, named after Jack White and Meg White of the White Stripes, use the band's signature red, black, and white color motif and peppermint logo. Functionally identical to plain, unrocking Holga and Diana+ models, the Jack Holga and Meg Diana+ are plastic medium-format film cameras with fixed-focal-length lenses. They have been produced in editions of 3000 units each, and come in specially designed packages with a customized set of accessories.
The Meg Diana+ kit includes a removable lens that allows the camera to be used for pinhole photography, a "Nobody Knows How to Talk to Children" ring flash that comes with red and white gels, and a Peppermint Film Mask, which fits in front of the film frame and imprints a peppermint swirl on images. The Jack Holga kit includes a fisheye lens converter, red and black soft-surround filters, a solid red filter, and a peppermint-pattern lens filter.
The Meg Diana+ and Jack Holga kits are available for $180 each from the Lomography and White Stripes Web sites.
