Description
ok, so this is my first time using the holga medium format toy camera. i think i have rediscovered the joy of photography with this thing- the camera is totally crap plastic toy and the results proove that fact, but there is something about it that is basic and primitive. no f-stop or shutter speed, white balance, flash, ISO to dilute the brain, and you never really know what you're going to get. there is something rewarding about shooting and developing in the darkroom. thanks to christchild [link] for turning me on to this camera.Related content

wow. This is a relly good shot.
I've never tried holga before but this picture makes me wanna try !
right now I just bought a canon eos 500N, but i dont know anything about film photography so i guess i cant develop my pictures in the darkroom myself .. i dont even know which tihngs to use lol so i guess i'll just take the pictures down to the fujifilm store and let the experimented ppl do it themselves lol.
again, really good shot. I love it = )

the darkroom at my college only develops 35mm film.. can you still develop 120 film with the same machinery??

You can use the same chemicals, but you will need a larger developing tank and film spool because 120 film is larger.
