Yes, I use a pinhole holga. My first two rolls were a bust, but here are 2 photos from my 1st "good" roll:







I've been enjoying my recent pin-holga-ing.

gcsk76, chambrenoire(are you that seller on ebay with the Domke bags?) - love your shots.

nico - your blue one is great

I would love to Holga, but buying and processing C41 120 film is so expensive here... Anyone tried the 35mm Holga?

i love my holga....here are a few from a recent trip to spain (honeymoon!!)
side note: i ruined an entire roll of film in san sebastian b/c the camera was on "b" from the night before i'll never make that mistake again. i kept saying, "gee, the shutter sounds off"

The hatred is part of their charm.

You know, there are some pretty cool shots on this thread.

However, I'm still not crazy about Holgas. Maybe it is the name? Or maybe I just don't like the way they look or the whole concept of the stupid camera? I don't know.....

Hah! I was typing my last response while you were posting yours.

So maybe it is cool to hate them?
