What has a cheap plastic body and lens with no seals so that you get light leaks from hell, costs 40 bucks, comes with a strap and a roll of medium format film and takes photos you can't get with any other camera? 📷 Holga 120N 🎞️ Kentmere Pan 400 #photography #Holga #120film #believeinfilm #BnW - ThreadSky

Looks worth way more than 40 bucks to me! 😊✌🏻

Bidding on one of these right now.

It doesn't matter the camera,it matters you took the photo and it looks really good.

So beautiful. Have been on a polaroid kick for a bit, but I recently found some old pictures I took with my Diana (the Holga knock off), was thinking it's time to revisit.

Oh I want to paint this

I often use an ancient rollex 120 - fixed every damn thing, a couple of pinholes in the bellows. Good stuff when it works.

Love this photo of yours. Pure mood and scene.

The important part is still right behind the camera. Nice shot! And I love my Holgas too.

Very fine. Have you tried pushing it one stop? That's the combination I was using last time out with the 120N.

the-pentaxian.bsky.social•12 days ago

No Steven, I haven't tried that. Maybe that would give it a little more contrast. Worth a try.

pearwoodphoto.bsky.social•12 days ago

It did for me.

I have two glass lens holgas, I've never had much light leak issues, but the cheap quality lens is the 💣. I like the glass because it's slightly sharper.

Attached one of those lenses to a lens board for my graflex.
