- Best Camera for the Money!If you are looking for a cheap, no nonsense medium format camera, this is the one for you. Ya, it still shoots actual film, but thats what its all about. No shutter speeds, no real focus, just aim and cross your fingers. [...] Rating: - What I expected.The camera is exactly what I expected. Everything seems to work right, though I haven't had my first roll developed yet. It's all plastic, seems to be tough...came with a neck strap too. I bought the camera to modify into a pinhole camera, which I haven't done yet. Rating: - Holga, what a lovely piece of cr*p :)This is a lovely piece of plastic that allows you to do photography in the worst possible way, and the best possible way at the same time. I got three, one for a friend, one for another friend and one for me. It's true, I haven't gotten a good photo yet, but I haven't tried hard enough. Rating: - fun!see www.squarefrog.uk.com for a full tutorial on the Holga! This camera is great fun. You can even run 35mm through it if the 120mm format is somehow foreboding to you. I started taking pictures with the Holga about 3 months ago and I am hooked. The images are startling and unique. Rating: - just what i expectedI guess it's just that -- just what I expected. I love the Holga, but it's for fun and the unexpected, doesn't serve the same purpose as my Nikon D50. :)
