Thinking Holga - You're a brave soul

If you're thinking Holga you already know about "Holganess." It is well built for the plasticness that makes these goofy cameras so popular. Yes this is WHITE as white can be . Easy to load and unload film. The aperture does work. make sure you buy and use the cable release as it helps big time in getting a sharp shot (sharp Holga shot??? yes you do want a sharp shot as it makes the Holga effect more pleasing). Also, take notes when you shoot so you know what you were trying for when you took the shoot. Then get the film developed pronto so you can compare your photo vision to the result. If you're new it costs about $1 to get a shot developed and scanned onto a CD.
