COLLEGE?! You've been in the US too long. Be careful - you might start dropping the 'u' in colour or ardour or something. 😜

$20 open box/never used ebay purchase. Could not resist..
This one has a plastic lens, my others have glass and looking at the results from all of them, plastic vs glass is not which is better as they give different looks. So get both.

My new Holga 120N aka Big Red.



Test roll using FP4+. Compared to my glass lenses Holgas, this seems to have less severe vignetting, a greater amount of smearage to the sides but because of that it seems to make the center pop some more.
Very pleased with it!







My other Holgas have the built in flash, but it is so puny the range is very limited. Because they have the built in flash, they do not have a hot shoe.
This simpler model has a hot shoe which makes it way more versatile for flash use, as you can use anything on it. Here I tested it with a Metz 34 CS flash. At f8 (the widest Holga aperture) with ISO 100 film the auto range is out to 12 ft.

Ondu 6x6 pinhole camera, Fomapan 400, photos taken yesterday. And for developing this roll I tried twizzling instead of inversions for agitation and got no air bells, finally! Thanks @Desmolicious for the suggestion. Unfortunately this camera is still scratching film despite all my attempts to fix so I'm going to switch to another brand.

Have you tried putting a piece of scotch tape over both edges of the film gate? (left and right sides) I have done that to cover up scratchy surfaces.

The maker actually suggested I do that, or else sand them down a little with ultrafine sandpaper. I chose the sanding route as I was worried about the tape unsticking during use and getting fouled up with the film. But my theory (which seems to be incorrect) is that it's the back plate that's causing the scratches. This whole camera is made of wood, and a small split developed in the back plate, which I can feel with my finger. So I sanded it down until I couldn't feel it anymore; the location of the split lined up with the location of the main scratch on the film so I figured I'd found and solved the problem, but no dice.

Maybe I'll run one last roll through with tape over the edges of the film gate to see if that solves it. If not, maybe I'll put the camera into the fire and cook a hamburger.

I've used tape with no issues. Just make sure the surface that you attach it to is clean. I've even used it on a Leica R8 (what, a Leica scratching film?!) because they had this static roller system for the quick load which pushed the film into position. Problem is the material they used would wear off with time resulting in scratching. I just put a little piece of scotch tape on the roller and problem solved!

ruh - oh!

FYI Big Red also does not light leak (I make sure to use the lens cap). So you may want to drop yours a few times in order to get that you-tuber vibe. Then tape it up with sparkly cat tape.

Okay, tape added and a new roll put in. Fingers crossed!

If it works, the other thing I'll do is glue the filter holder to the camera. The filter holder attaches with magnets but they aren't very strong, and the filter holder has fallen off three times now...the last time (yesterday) the fall damaged the filter I had in it. Since I use a filter (usually Red 25 for B&W, or ND filters for colour) for 99% of my pinhole images, I'll just glue the holder on so I don' t have to deal with that risk.

I just loaded up 100' of Fomapan 100 in the form of Arista EDU 100. I've only ever shot a couple rolls before, but I quite liked it. The images you've shot with it also speak to its strengths.
