Photography09: Beautiful nimslo

Where vintage 3D cameras meet modern experimentation, and every click creates depth beyond the frame

What is a Nimslo?

It's not just a cool name. It's a unique and collectible camera that plays the same role as an Instax—making moments special without giving you the picture immediately. The NIMSLO 3D camera is unique because it has four lenses that expose light over two films. It's a little rare to get your hands on, but with that said, if you ever come across one, grab it! Don't hesitate! I strongly recommend it.

Sometimes the most interesting perspectives come from tools that refuse to see the world simply.


Le Dragon 


This is one of my favorite photographs and is now available as an NFT. There's something about capturing smoke in motion that the Nimslo does differently—the four lenses create this temporal layering where the smoke exists in multiple dimensions simultaneously. The dragon isn't just the smoke; it's the moment stretched across space.


Art class



Art class is a room where I've spent more time than any other in my whole life. This is a combination of 3D photography and spatial awareness. The Nimslo doesn't just document the gallery—it recreates the feeling of moving through it, that sense of objects existing in relationship to each other rather than as flat compositions.


Ghost in my house


Of all the crazy things happening in my house, this captures the theatrical nature of domestic life. The model in the picture is Chieh Huang, and the Nimslo's dimensional quality makes the costume feel genuinely otherworldly rather than just playful. Four lenses mean four slightly different versions of reality—perfect for ghosts.

That's a picture of me


I spiced it up with an abstract shape to add perspective, because otherwise it was too plain. But that's the thing about Nimslo photography—it's never just plain. Even without digital manipulation, the camera creates its own kind of abstraction through dimensional layering. The disc exists in motion across multiple exposures.The Doorway


One can conclude: if it's not abstract, it's not me. The Nimslo turns ordinary architectural spaces into something more mysterious. Those floating shapes aren't just digital additions—they're responses to how the camera sees depth, how it creates spaces between the real and the imagined.

Experiments in Motion and Space


The beauty of four-lens photography is how it captures action across time. These jumping figures exist in a moment that's simultaneously frozen and fluid. The bird becomes sculptural against the fence, but with depth information that makes it feel like you could reach through the frame and touch its feathers.

Domestic Dimensions


Even my cats become more dimensional subjects. The Nimslo captures not just their positions but their presence in space—how they inhabit rooms, claim territories, exist in three-dimensional relationships with furniture and walls.




Water becomes particularly interesting through four lenses—reflections multiply, creating visual echoes that feel more like memory than photography. The backyard gatherings gain this documentary depth where every person exists in clear spatial relationship to everyone else.

Urban and Natural Observations


From intimate cat portraits to expansive lake scenes, the Nimslo creates this consistent sense of being there rather than just looking at. The city street becomes navigable, the lake feels vast, the cat seems touchable.

Public Spaces and Private Moments


The camera excels at capturing the layered nature of public life—people observing, performing, existing in spaces that belong to everyone and no one. Each frame contains multiple stories happening at different depths.

Animated Experiments


Even when the Nimslo experiments extend into animation, that sense of dimensional space persists. The mushroom doesn't just grow—it grows into the space, claiming its place in a three-dimensional environment.

The Four-Lens Philosophy

The Nimslo teaches you to see differently. Instead of hunting for the perfect single moment, you're capturing the space around moments, the depth between subjects, the way light falls across time rather than just surface. It's photography that acknowledges that reality is dimensional, layered, never quite as flat as we pretend it is.


Every photograph is actually four photographs having a conversation with each other.
