What is Holga?
Holga 120GCFN box |
The Holga is an inexpensive medium format camera that was made in China. It has a simple meniscus lens that often yields pictures that display vignetting, blur, light leaks and many other distortions. This effect is what making Holga popular among film lover..
Back in October 2011 I bought Holga 120 GCFN. It was my first toy camera. Buying this camera was my first step of taking picture using film. I bought this camera from a blogshop called Roflcam for RM210 (with postage from Peninsular Malaysia to East Malaysia ( Sabah ).
