I turned my $1,000 mirrorless camera into a lo-fi point-and-shoot with a $40 lens – here’s why you should too

Pocket Dispo product images.

Are you constantly chasing that vintage lo-fi aesthetic with your photography? If so, how about taking things to the extreme by adapting your expensive mirrorless camera to emulate a disposable point-and-shoot? That’s exactly what I did with a novel piece of kit from a new company called Pocket Dispo.

As the name might suggest, Pocket Dispo rescues the lenses from disposable cameras and repurposes them into lenses for modern interchangeable lens cameras. It’s a great idea, and a pretty admirable one if those lenses were otherwise destined for landfill. When Pocket Dispo sent over a sample I wasn’t expecting much, but I have to say that I had an absolute blast shooting with it – far more than you would have thought for the $40 asking price.
