Holga
This camera is great, but dont buy it if you are looking for a fancy camera! The Holga is the absolute bare basics- its quite literally the simplest camera ever. You should only buy this if you know and are expecting that…but the Holga is an awesome way to simplify your process and toss away the frills
very cool but…..
so i got this camera to toss in my bag and use for fun. i’ve been shooting for several years now and am well aware of basic concepts of photography (e.g. aperture, shutter-speed, film speed, as well as film and print development etc). my first roll was completely washed out. i was pretty upset, i had a lot of great pictures on that roll and they were gone, huge bummer. i haven’t used it since. the thing that blew me away was that two of the pictures developed, the rest were completely blank. while i assume it was something i did i couldn’t pin-point what it was and still have no clue. i’m going to stick with my trusty 35mm, hope you have better luck than i did.
Never know what to expect, but still fun
This is my second Holga 120N. I really love using these cameras as a diversion from the now common world of digital cameras. Sure, I could get a better used medium format camera for about the same price without the problems of light leaks, soft focus, and harsh vignetting, but that is kinda the point, isn’t it? It is fun to use and doesn’t hurt to lose. Pick one up to maybe create something new out of very old technology.
Cheap lomo,smart,cool
