Customer Rating:

Summary: I love my Holga!

Comment: What FUN- This little gem has been a refreshing "shoot from the hip" way to blow through film without a care of what I am aiming at or knowing how it will come out during my Photo Classes at the college. Yeah- FUN!

Summary: The Art Kid's Camera

Comment: I is so odd to be holding a camera that looks like it is from a cartoon, but you won't be disappointed in your pictures. This is the first non digital camera I have used since 2000 and I love it. The worst problem I have is the price of film and development. I hear they only get better with age so I only expect to be happier as the years go on.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Just what I ordered

Comment: Holgas normally run for roughly $70 dollars so when I found this for such a low price I had to buy it. It does exactly what a Holga is supposed to do.

Editorial reviews:

From its humble creation in 1982, the Holga has grown into a globe-spanning cult item, able to capture the most unique photographic treasures that you have ever seen. Pick up the Holga, free yourself from the rules, and shoot your heart out. The famous Medium-format dynamo, now with a built in flash and color-gel filters! Prepare to employ your trusty Holga day or night as the flash opens up new worlds of low-light images with the beloved Holga effects, soft focus, double-exposures, streaming colors, intense vignetting and unpredictable light leaks. A "B" setting keeps the shutter open for as long as you like, and the dandy new tripod thread allows for smooth tripod mounting. "Mes Vacances Avec Holga" Photo Book by Frederic Lebain: A self-taught photographer, Mr. Lebain first saw the Holga 4 years ago in a New York photo shop. Since then, he has become one of the premier Holga artists in the world, holding exhibitions throughout Europe and Asia and being published in the venerable likes of Jalouse and DS Magazine. This 90 page book is a visual chronicle of Mr. Lebain's travels over the past few years, as told through his very finest Holga images. Softcover. Published by the Lomographic Society, 2002
