Holga Camera
The Holga is a wonderful plastic medium format (120) film camera. Although it is built like a cheap toy it is capable of creating amazing photographs. Due to its simple construction and low cost you can feel free to modify and experiment with the camera in a way that no other camera will allow. This give the owner a degree of creative freedom that would be otherwise impractical.
Every Holga that has been used becomes unique to the owner. In most cases it is necessary to alter the camera to correct light leaks or film winding problems. As soon as you take a file or hacksaw to your Holga it becomes something no one else has. (For better or worse!) Once you have started the process of modifying the camera all doors are now open.
The Holga's best aspect is its cost and the fact that it takes medium format film. The need to modify it brings it right to a level of uniqueness and personalization unimaginable with a standard camera.
