The Diana Mini (2009) is Lomography's 35mm version of the Diana F+ toy camera. It shoots 35mm film in two modes selected by a switch on the back: **half-frame** (18×24 mm, ~72 exposures per roll of 36) for portrait-oriented shooting, and **square** (24×24 mm, ~40 exposures per roll of 36) for the square crop made popular by medium-format toy cameras. The lens is a 24mm f/11 plastic single-element optic, producing the characteristic Diana soft focus, vignetting, and color shifts. No meter, no battery — exposure is the photographer's estimate, with one shutter speed (~1/100s) plus Bulb. A zone focus ring provides three positions (~1 m, ~2 m, and infinity).

Before you buy used
- **Format switch** — verify the half-frame / square selector clicks positively into both positions.
- **Viewfinder** — the tunnel viewfinder is approximate; expect edge vignette not visible in the finder.
- **Hot shoe** — works with any standard hot-shoe flash; Diana-branded color-gel flash is fun but not required.
- **Light leaks** — 35mm cartridge door should seal; minimal foam. Tape over the back edge if in doubt.
- **Plastic cracks** — at strap lugs; cosmetic.
- New price ~$75 means used prices must be meaningfully lower to be worth it.
