My friend has just bought the White Stripes Edition 'Jack Holga' for his wife!

And it's my fault ... !! 😱

I was at work showing my good friend and employer Ash the 'White Stripes Jack Holga' on the internet a few weeks ago and yesterday he asked me about it and said he wanted to check it out again. When I guided him to the Lomo site to my amazement he whipped his credit card out and bought one ... for his wife! 😱

They are both huge White Stripes fans and she currently shoots a Canon DSLR occasionally. I explained to him that she may notice a slight difference in image quality with the Holga compared to the Canon but hey, what the hell ... a film convert is a film convert! 😀

This means of course I'll get to have a play with it when it gets here ... and will probably end up supplying his wife Brenda with some 120 film and then developing and scanning it for her!

I'm guessing the White Stripes are a sports team like the Leafs?

I hope to see photos of dead leaves and the dirty ground, myself.

I remember that other thread... Ha, it bore fruit. Cool. 🙂

Precisely ... 😀

That is very cool! I just got a Diana Mini a while back (yes, I lost the cap the first day) and it's been a blast. Nothing like a dreamy plastic lens 😉

I got one of these sets for my brother for Xmas a couple years ago. Cost a bloody arm and a leg, but it's pretty damn nifty.

Yes not cheap ... $180.00 something from memory but discounted down to $160.00 something! 😀

I sort of wonder how many they've sold?

I wonder how you explained that "slight difference in image quality"...😉
