Summary: The coolest camera you will ever own...
Review: I got my Holga a couple months ago... I also ordered a Polaroid back for mine... this is by far the coolest camera I have ever owned... the Holga produces unpredictable results and it is a very versatile camera--- it is constructed so that it will accept 120 size film but you can modify the camera to take 35mm film and the result is sprocket hole photography [very cool].
I recommend a google search on the camera... it is advisable to do some research on the camera before getting started.
Spoil yourself and get the Polaroid back for instant gratification.

Summary: CHEAP CAMERA + FANTASTIC RESULTS
Review: It si a cheap camera. Plastic body, plastic lense, only two F stops. You might have to tape the batteries in to work. You might have to tape the seams of the body closed to keep light from bleeding through to the film. It is FUN! The pictures are great because they are medium format and not 35mm. You have more area for your composition. Yes, it is cheap and the results can be a bit strange; but it is a fantastic camera and well worth every penny. Take it with you everywhere and take pictures of everything. It is that fun and easy to use.

Summary: Sweeet - with flash!
Review: This review is based on the non-flash version, but i want to get my hands on this one asap.
The Holga - what to say. A bad plastic lens, somewhat shoddy plastic construction, creates an almost disposable 120 camera. So, why would i give it any stars and own many?
Well, the bad plastic lens can also produce some of the most beautiful images ever. Dreamy looking especially because the edges are so soft and distorted.
Plus using 120 film allows you to actually blow them up some without showing too much grain.one last note - once, when shooting a wedding, i brought my Holga along for a few fun shots. They came out great, and i actually got more orders for reprints from that roll than any other. Neat.
