MY FAVORITE CAMERA EVER MADE

Probably my favorite camera ever made is the Holga. Its a cheap plastic camera that you can get for almost no money. It has no features and very little control. But if you learn how to use a Holga it opens up a lot of creative possibilities on a camera that you can't get any other way.

I kind of get annoyed with people who criticise certain types of photography such as lomography. In my mind a photo is an image created with light and the method you choose to do that is totally up to you. Unless you are shooting for a client then you should shoot whatever makes you happy.

@maksqwe1 6 жыл бұрын

These cheap cameras have taught me more about photography than any of my "expensive" gear. With let's say a phone, or a holga you have to really flex and work hard on getting the shot and it makes you think about your photos, and when I do get a perfect photo, it really makes me happy that I could get something really cool out of something that is basically plastic.

I found a guy on craigslist that had a box of cameras for 40 bucks back last year. I went and got them, end up with a working holga, ansco ShurShot, and a Polaroid 101. I love the ShurShot. Its very inspiring. I plan to use it for street photography, but haven't yet. Mostly because developing film is so expensive where I live, because only one place that still does it. But, I am going to started developing film, which you two have inspired me to do! So thank you!

I'm 60 and am just getting back into hobby photography after dropping it about 30 years ago. The Holga has been a simple economical fun way to get my feet wet again and Ted's AOP KZfaq video's have been invaluable in getting me up to speed. Been a learning curve to get going with medium format since I only dealt with 35mm in the '80's. But again, kudo's to Ted for his wonderful help he's put out in these video's. THANKS TED!!!!!!

Before Holga started coming out with all the bells and whistles, I bought my first Holgas from Randy! I got so into shooting with Holgas that I stopped shooting 35mm altogether. For me, it was a 1st step into medium format photography. After my collection of Holgas, I bought a new Mamiya 645 Pro TL and then a mildly used Hasselblad 500 C/M off of eBay. It's too bad they're going out of production, but it's a good thing I held onto a couple of them. Maybe some day they'll be worth as much as $50!

At SCAD we had almost a whole semester using a Holga. What a great discipline. One really learns how to see the light so you know what film to use. Some hated it. One complained when she used a high ASA and went to shoot on the beach and was upset everything was blown out. I still have mine and use it when I get tired of all the fancy controls on DSLRs as well as tired of lugging heavy cameras around.

I've got a couple of old Argus 35mm cameras that have many of the characteristics that you talked about, and the resulting funky images have their own appeal to me. One of them is very heavily vignetted but the center focus is sharp. My all-time favorite though is the first "real" camera that I bought, a Rollieflex 2.8F. It has visible moss (fungus) on the lens, but still takes very sharp pictures. I don't have the space to spare any more, but I used to have a full black & white darkroom setup and really liked the medium format. Never had a Holga, but my very first camera when I was a young child was a Kodak Brownie box camera. I don't have the camera any more, but I do have the photos I took with it.

Film to me at that time was all about wild exploration and pleasant surprises through inconsistencies and variability...I had no idea what I was doing. Each trip to the lab was like Christmas morning! Thanks for the great video -- I may well get that Cadet back into use.

Ted, I wanted to get a Holga but to keep my pack as small as possible I opted for a similar 35mm camera(so I'd only have to carry one film size). I wound up with a Kodak Pony 135, which has a few more features than the Holga but similar optics and handling. I stumbled across the Pony in an antiques shop in Bay City, Michigan while working on a ship heading through, and it took me two more port stops to find a place that sold film. Great little camera, though my girlfriend shoots with it much more than I do at this point.

I understand what you mean about getting creative when using minimalist camera with strong limitations. You try to overcome some of these limitations using your imagination and you make good use of some of the imperfections which on the other hand, opens up a whole new world. Nowadays people are dependent on the versatility of in-camera settings. Their exhaustive range blinds the art of bypassing the limitations by creative manoeuvrability. The art of experimenting can be less tempting when you have an array of dials that can do the things for you - just like presets. I would suggest people to get out of their comfort zone, and voluntarily try out alternative solutions. Like the setup of your new studio. I can't wait to see it all finished. Thanks Ted for staying true to the creativity of photography!

For me, the Brownie #2 box camera. I had one of those before "moving up" to a Brownie Hawkeye, which I still have. Old folding cameras are also a trip as you are dealing with screwy shutter speed (1/5, 1/10, 1/25 sec) and very limited apertures. Focusing is strictly SWAG, but the results can be surprising.

Hey Ted, really pleased that you posted a video on this subject because I have been working my way through your back catalog and was really intrigued by the Holga Project. The only problem is that I can't see any of the photos. When I went to the page it looks like the code is broken (at least from my Safari on Mac), I can read some of the text but no photos display. Is this just me or can I view them another way? Also, I have just received my first Holga (very timely) curtesy of yourself & Matt Day, so I plan to do my own Holga Project where I might share the camera with a few friends and see what results each of us comes up with. I'll be sure to send them in to you if it works out. Anyway, thanks for all the hard work. Chris

It was cheap but it was expensive.. that's been my trouble with Holga. I got a 120FN in 2008 and still love it in 2019. But for processing at ~$2 per image it's hard to push the shutter on a $20 toy camera with $20 toy camera results. Processing one roll of film costs more than the camera! Now you can pick up circa-2000 prosumer 35mm bodies for $30-$40 on ebay and get really pro results at more like 50¢ per image.
