		Holga images tend to be faded or have a yellowish tint.
		Holga images, therefore, are a result of precise knowledge and skills combined with unpredictable faults and flaws.
		Holgas also can be equipped with lenses, such as a fish eyes lens, colored bodies, cable releasers, and pretty much anything else a film enthusiast can think of.

	CalArti - Fun With The Holga (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Unless you are using flash (the Holga 120S does have a working hotshoe) controlling exposure is almost impossible – you have one shutter speed (reputed to be ~1/100th of a second) and possibly 2 apertures –; f8 and 11.
		I have two Holgas – one older, on newer, and the aperture changing mechanism is clearly different between them.
		The newer Holgas have foam rubber pads near the film rolls that act as tensioners for the film – as a result, you get a somewhat tightly wound roll of film when you’re done shooting.

		Holgas are also now available in special edition colours for some models, including White, Silver (which adds silver accents to some areas of the Holga), and Gold.

	Susanne Friedrich \| Holga Tips
		The Holga uses medium format film and has some interesting characteristics: it leaks light and the resulting images tend to be somewhat fuzzy due to the above mentioned plastic lens.
		Photographing with the Holga is a little bit like therapy, in that it teaches you to give up control and embrace random ocurrences of serendipity instead.
		The focus controls on the Holga are as follows: Set it on the mountain for far away shots, on the group of people for medium far away shots and on the little person for closeups.

	Holga FAQ
		Someone asked this question and someone else said their Holga does it too and it was ok. So until I hear from someone that this resulted in damage to their camera or some other property in some way, I will assume that this is normal for some Holgas and is nothing to be concerned about.
		Due to the fixed nature of the Holga’s exposures, choose your film speed carefully but don’t be afraid to waste a roll or two finding the right speed for what you want to shoot.
		The dreaminess of the Holga’s images is due to the imperfections in the plastic lens and the fact that it is a single element lens.

	In the Eye of a Holga (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		The Holga at the heart of the cult following is the Holga 120S which is the main Holga that I use, although there are now many more versions of this plastic classic including the 120N which is the other model I shoot.
		I've found like many others that the Holga can be house trained (but never tamed without modification) and not only produce pictures which have character that are fun to capture, but pictures that stand alone in their own right which attract public and artistic interest.
		The pictures produced with a Holga do seem to be either loved by those that understand them, or hated by those that see them only as something, which does not fit into their vision of todays sterilised world.

	Luminescent: Holga 120S
		When it comes to the Holga, soft edges and vignetting are very good things, and contribute to the vintage or dreamy feeling that Holga photos often have.
		Light leaks in the Holga can be a real problem, but they can be easily fixed using matte fl photographer's tape or fl gaffer tape, and sticky Velcro (you can clearly see the Velcro around my Holga in the photo above - thanks Rannie for showing me how to do that).
		Other features of the Holga include a hotshoe for a flash, two exposures, which are shown above the lens by a sun and a cloud (these don't actually seem to do anything - pick one and leave it there), and a focusable lens.

	Shutterbug: The Holga Enlarger
		For readers who are unfamiliar with the Holga camera, a bit of background is in order, lest you wonder why I would bother to review a $100 enlarger, with its inevitable compromises.
		The plastic-lensed Holga, and its glass-lensed sibling, the Woca, are cheap (not merely “inexpensive”), plastic, medium format cameras (6x6cm, or 6x4.5cm via a mask if you prefer less vignetting at the corners), complete with elementary 60mm lens, one shutter speed (1/60 sec), and two apertures (f/8 and f/11).
		The Holga enlarger accommodates negatives from 35mm to 6x6cm.

		The Holga is a crappy plastic camera, with a romantic image as a crappy plastic camera.
		The fact that they can be had for next to nothing means that they are very attractive to those who might want to customize their cameras.
		Holgas are painted, their shutters adjusted or replaced, tripod mounts are added, they are made into pinhole cameras...

		The real action concerned the fine art of Holga modification - duct tape techniques, tripod add ons etc. Seeing Mary Ellen Mark or Keith Carter shooting with their trusty little Holga was always a real treat.
		Holga takes great pics too, if you are lucky (or know what you are doing maybe).
		No doubt there are some poor souls who believe that owning a Lomo or a Holga makes them trendy, but the proof is in the results they obtain with it.

		A holga is a very low-tech $20 plastic medium format camera that was really made as a toy camera, but it has caught on with many photographers due to the unique look of the images a Holga produces.
		Holgas are plagued with light leaks, poor plastic lenses, and unpredictable controls.
		While not all Holga images are shot in fl and white, I would guess that most are, and fl and white adds to the Holga mood.

		And, as always, if you find a bug, want a feature, can offer a new translation, or want to test new versions before they are available, please let me know.
		I was quite excited because it is the first time I have had a holga and a light meter at the same time, so I had a little bit more precision with the shots that I was taking.
		I have a Holga with bulb mode, too, so I have pretty good control over the shutter speed, but it is still pretty much guesswork with the timing.

		The Holga was intended to have a two aperture settings.
		But the unmodified Holga has only one true aperture which is the smaller aperture(f/?) that is fixed to the lens.

		So you've never used a Holga before, but you vaguely heard about this toy camera or you just saw it at the local photo store and were charmed by the sheer bubble-gum quality of it.
		You can also use Polaroid film with your Holga if (a) you bought the expensive Holgaroid, (b) you bought the expensive Polaroid back for the Holga after the fact, or (c) you're as creative and skilled as Randy at holgamods.com.
		There is nothing in a Holga to ensure even tension on the film, except the friction of the spindles themselves.

		So, you have your toy camera and you’re ready to let it open up a whole new world of photography to you when suddenly you spy a detail in a stone carving, a leaf, an egg… just begging to be photographed.
		One of the first things you notice when loading the initial roll of 120 film in your Holga is how loosely the film and the take up spool fit inside the camera.
		The usual fix is to tear off the end tab of a 120 film box, cut it in half and then fold the two pieces in half to make a couple of wedges.

		A Holga is a plastic 120 film camera that is cheap, cheap, cheap and built like it.
		There’s also controversy over the Holga, with many people dismissing it as a cheap plastic toy camera, and many others taking astonishingly unique photos with it in spite of light leaks and considerable variation from camera to camera in lens quality, shutter speed, and f/stops.
		Think of the Holga as a rangefinder version of the Kodak Brownie and you won’t be too far off the mark.

		I'm afraid to say that until this very moment they have been closed.
		The unassuming Holga is here to save you from a future of digital pixels and images shared on small screens on cameras or phones.

		Not only is the Holga a medium-format camera, but it’s also capable of shooting both 6 x 4.5cm and 6 x 6cm formats (with the removal of an internal plastic mask).
		This possibility can actually be quite useful as can partial winding, allowing the creation of pseudo panoramic images which merge from one to another (the blending being assisted by the characteristic fall-off towards the edges).
		You’ll notice that most Holga images are composed with the subject in the center.

		The Holga is a plastic toy camera made in China.
		On the other hand, due to the camera’s simplicity, there are lots of interesting things one can do like create multiple exposures—just don't advance the film between shots (this will happen whether you want it or not, by the way!) or run frames together by advancing the film incompletely to create panoramic collages.
		Freestyle Photographic Supplies is a great source for unmodified Holgas (as well as many other toy and novelty cameras from around the world) and Holga accessories such as a Holga flash, Holga bags, a Holga enlarger and a Polaroid Holga back (!).
