Holga

My wishlist folder is getting out of hand, so I thought a good way of controlling what I spend is to organise it on here.

001. Film Camera
I really want one for schoolies. I know I can use my DSLR, but there's something about the grainy, faded look and effort needed in film photography that really tells a story. And I don't want to take my dad's film camera cos if anything happens to it, he will actually kill me...

Currently thinking of getting the Holga K200NM because:

  • it's cheap ($54 on ebay)
(thinking of getting it in blue)
  • it's got a removable fisheye lens
I think the lens will especially look great when I go to the beaches and what during schoolies at the central coast..
  • Multiple exposure button
Which pretty much makes pictures looks pretty and overlapped and stuff. And also colour filters (the colour plastic bits) to make pics a certain colour. Never used these features before, so it would be fun to experiment with.

It seems like a pretty decent, cheap and fun camera to play around with. Maybe I'll get it when I actually get a job and pay off my Big Day Out and now Florence and the Machine concert ticket...
