Cheapo camera results

[Parrot of Doom]

Hi there, just a couple of images from the Holga I bought a few months back:





I have more, but unfortunately I haven't had them scannned to a CD yet - I only have the slides. I'm waiting to build up a decent collection of slides before I get them all scanned in bulk.

Plenty of light leakage and the distance focus is terrible, but I rather like the results. Not bad for a few quid and a bit of a muck around!

There are some more of my piccies here, on a range of cameras:

Please note that stills photography is purely a hobby for me, I make my living filming moving pictures

There is an appealing quality to these pictures, although I have to say the process itself doesn't appeal to me.

I'm very tempted by a Holga, and your photo's are pushing me further and further to the edge.

Have you gaffered yours up?

[Parrot of Doom]

Only a little bit of gaffer, and thats mostly to stop the back from falling open!

Once you get rid of the crappy takeup reel that comes with it, and use a reel from a used film, theres a lot less leakage.

Great

BTW if you do get one, I have an unused flash here. I bought the model that can't use a flash, and then bought a flash

So basically I have a useless flash going for cheap
