Comments about Holga Holga 35mm Film Adaptor Kit for Holga 120 Medium Format Cameras:

Not exactly a "con" but this one creates normal-looking photos--if you want the sprockets to show in the photos, don't use the mask (per web articles I have read). I have yet to try it and of course, I will not use a 1-hr photo place to get it printed. Per the web articles, take it to a photo lab. This is good for 35 mm film and does what it's supposed to do--be able to use 35 mm film in your Holga.

Comments about Holga Holga 35mm Film Adaptor Kit for Holga 120 Medium Format Cameras:

I've heard that this product works, but I feel obliged to let everyone know that it is completely unneccessary to spend money on something like this. You can adapt your Holga to use 35mm film with stuff that you can find lying around your house. In other words, for free. It's very easy and I do it all the time. You just need some foam packing peanuts or foam chunks to secure the film so it doesn't move around. This method works as good or better than any adapter you can buy. There are plenty of instructional videos and websites to help you do this, if you're interested. Just search for "How to use 35mm film in a Holga" on Youtube, and you should get some pretty helpful videos.
Have fun!

Comments about Holga Holga 35mm Film Adaptor Kit for Holga 120 Medium Format Cameras:

I bought the 35mm kit for early testing with our 2 Holga's. It went fine. We learned a little about the cameras and developing 35mm was a lot faster and cheaper than 120.When we finally switched to 120 there was no going back to 35. This is why we bought Holgas!The real charm of these cameras only comes through on the bigger negs.For [$] it is worth it to try a couple of 35mm rolls. After that, I put it away.
