Holy optical lunacy batman.
That’s a seriously fine collection. I think everyone should have at least two Holgas. One day they will form a new currency.

hahahaha!!!! thankyou my friend… yes, my original holga 120S that i did some major deconstruction surgery to, I ended up having to get a new lens from holgamods.com as the old one fell apart and my super glue fix-it job scotched the lens + I tried making some guide lines on the viewfinder and botched that too. I did manage to give it a spiffy speckle finish paint job to the top half though! Have been tempted to get one of those new colorflash holgys but they’re a bit too pricey for my liking.
Karin Taylor
Wow!!!!!
Haydn Williams replied
cheers! and the best thing is that they all still work :)

Haydn Williams replied

Hmmm. I only have one Holga which poses a bit of a dilemma if I was to try to take a photo like this …
Haydn Williams replied
that’s ok… one holga is better than none!
Paul Lavallee
Love it, Haydn, quite a collection!
I own a few of the same: Clack, Diana, Diana+, various Holgas, and a Kiev 60
Haydn Williams replied
I used to have a Kiev 6C too but it died a horrible death when the film advance broke

favourite?
Haydn Williams replied
if I had to choose I would have to say my Holga 120FN, but I love them all
