Featuring Lara Jade (larajade.com) - world-renown fashion photographer - takes on the cheap camera challenge...we have a professional mode, couture clothing and a makeup artist...but we've taken the camera cheapness to a whole new level! The An Pan Man camera (Bread Superman camera, http://amzn.to/1A9Pvvv ) has a stunning 0.3-megapixels and awful features. Add that to the fact that Lara is only in Hong Kong for a layover - she has 6-hours to get 6 different images from 3 different looks - and we have an epic-fashion-photoshoot-on-the-cheap challenge!
Part of the "Pro Tog, Cheap Camera Challenge" series. Pro photographers from around the world take on the challenge to use one cheap camera to produce some creative stuff. But just what will happen?

In this series we bring in a pro photographer, and swap their pro equipment with one random cheap camera that we found in the car boots or garage sales. Whether it's a camera on the iPhone 2G, or a Vivitar thingy, a Rollei crapline 102, a Yashica EZ F-whatever, or a 2 megapixel lego camera that breaks into pieces (literally!), the pro is challenged to do a proper photo shoot with these cameras and no assistance from their pro gears whatsoever.
