Review of the Holgaroid - Uber-plastic goodness!

[Chasing Summer]

Hi guys, just a quick post to advise that I've posted a comprehensive review of the Holgaroid, featuring images and an examination of the pros and cons of the setup. It's certainly a challenging camera to use, and has some flaws, but with a few workarounds that I've discussed it can make nice images.

Outstanding Review!

Truly, this set up delivers the acme, the penultimate, the pièce de résistance of Holga crappiness!

I salute you.

Excellent stuff ... I really enjoyed the read. 🙂

I never even heard of this camera...but there it sits on Amazon, just waiting to be scarfed up.

Also, I wonder how folks are liking that nifty new handheld, 4x5 pinhole camera that came out recently.

Hmmm....

I have the Holgaroid too! Really enjoyed the article and the tip on the Fp3000 film! If only fuji can produce a peelapart half way between the both it'd make life a lot easier!

I've also found the fp100 even on a very bright day to be underexposed still 🙁 Only method is the MX way which requires a tripod or ultra steady hands but I've been having fun with MX on different scenes and objects and combined with the ring flash!
