Simple fun photography

I've been seriously into photography since 1999. I've had a few pictures published in magazines and I've even had some embassies buy my work. There are days when my photography feels like work and kind of stresses me out. Well I've found my little fix for days like that. The Holga camera's are perfect for fun photography. My best personal photo's have come from a Holga and it was all when I was just flipping away and not worrying too much about the composition of the shot or the exposure. The color flash adds another spin to an already fun camera. I love to use the flash in the daytime up close to my subjects (The blue flash on the beach gives an awesome feel to a photo).

My only complaint is the hassle of loading and unloading the film and the cheap feel to it, but then again it's a 'toy' camera so I guess that's part of the experince.

I recomend this (more so with the 35mm version) to anyone just looking to bring fun back into their photography.

Customer Service is great, got the package as expected. Great company to work with!

Don't pay $50 for this camera

My main point in writing this review is that you can get this camera for much, much cheaper by buying it used or elsewhere.

The Holga is fun and I know many people who swear by it. While I personally have never been extremely into lomography/"plastic fantastic" cameras, if you are this is a good camera and the advantage of using medium format film is wonderful. Also there are scores of websites that will tell you all the ways you can modify your Holga. So have fun! But seriously, there's almost no reason why not to buy this item used. I would not pay more than $20 for it.

Seems decent so far

When I first got the camera the shutter was sticking so I dropped some WD 40 on it. That seemed to do the trick. Be sure to either do the velcro mod or plan to tape up the back very good before you start shooting. The only other thing I can recommend is tape down the flash batteries as well. Mine started rolling around inside the camera while it had film in it. The flash fires up and works okay. Not had any issues with that yet.

The incredible color-flash technology - responsible for quite a lot of heat and bother among the Lomographic crowd - has now been extended to the iconic medium-format Holga. Using a combination of colored flashlight and a long shutter exposure, this revolutionary item can create some of the most mind-blowing images that you have ever seen. When this new functionality is paired with the Holga's already hectic characteristics (soft focus, light leaks, vignetting), the results are devastating.
