fun, but doesn't replace the film holga
I really miss the surreal photos I used to get with my film Holga, so when I saw this I immediately purchased it. For the price it's a nice toy to play with. You definitely get that "dreamy" soft focus, but it obviously cannot replicate the light leaks that are a hallmark of the Holga look. Even so, it's a fun (and cheap!) lens. Compared to say, plastic optics in the Lensbaby lineup, it's an absolute steal!

Inexpensive and fun!
This is an inexpensive plastic lens. The shots tend to be blurry with heavy vignetting. However, that is why one purchases this lens -- it gives you the toy camera look, and it is done in the lens rather through software. The mount attaches fine on my 60D. It is very light weight. The lens is just a pinhole, so you need a lot of light to see what you are shooting. A tripod is recommended. This lens is a lot of fun and it is a nice diversion from more sophisticated lenses. I give it 5 stars because it does what it is supposed to do.
