Holga-The cheap plastic camera.

I love messing around with my Holga.  The best part is you can never really predict the end result!  Here’s a couple of shots taken from the last roll (of film of course!).  There must have been a problem with the winder (or camera operator) as this is what ended up on the frames.  It’s hard to focus-you have to guess from the aperture setting how far to be from the subject and there’s no meter-so you have to do a bit of guesswork for poor lighting situations-or you can cheat and use a light meter (but that’s no fun!).  The only peeve I have using this camera is that by the time it takes to get the film processed and sent back-I can’t seem to remember what I did (or didn’t do) to get the end result!  So much fun!
