medium format, cheap and VERY affordable, great camera to experiment with, don't have to worry too much about settings- just shoot, vignetted corners, ability to make panoramic images. ability to do awesome double exposures, shoot from the hip.

takes a while to load and unload film, can't use any film under 400 speed, pretty fragile- if you drop it you're screwed.

Everyone should own a HOLGA... this is the coolest camera that you will ever own. You nver know what you're going to get with your HOLGA and no two HOLGAS are the same. It's the greatest camera to experiment with. Splurge and get yourself the HOLGAROID Polaroid back! I take mine everywhere I go...

They are cheap! They are fun! No two are a like.

It's plastic!

Holga's are the funnest camera you will ever own. As far as I am concerned every photographer should own at least one, I presently have two. They are a very basic camera with one shutter speed of approximately 1/100 and two f/stops of approximately f/8 and 11. You can find them stock for about $20 but I suggest you buy from www.holgamods.com. The guy there modifys them just enough to make this imperfect camera a little better. He flocks the inside to prevent most of the stray light and cuts the 6x4.5 mask to 6x6 which furthermore prevents stray light. He can do other things too for an extra fee, like colorize the body, add a tripod socket and ad a "BULB" feature. I have the latter two. As far as I am concerned the only format should be the 6x6, I love it! I would suggest you use duct tape to seal around the edges around the back. Doing so, does two things; it keeps the back on tight and stops light leaks. I would also suggest you make a flap from the tape over the "film counter window" again to prevent light leaks. The process for shooting with a Holga is different than shooting with any other camera out there and that is part of the fun. I am not sure if I can add anymore than Megan has, she is a Holga artist!
