Holga 120GCFN - Reviewed


I'm probably not quite qualified to talk on the subject yet; the photos haven't been developed. But still I like the feel of it - big and chunky, easy to use, black - all things a good camera should be. The only criticism that I will make is that the sunny/cloudy switch does nothing! Absolutely nought, nil, none! Even in the manual it says it does. I'm definitely going to mod that.

Compared to the older models it is a lot more practical with a tripod thread, B/N setting for the shutter and that flash is amazing. I'm waiting for the shots to get back from my Ilford Sportsman so I can get the envelope to send off my first roll to get developed. It was 135 because I didn't have any 120 at the time. It was actually quite easy to mod with the two mounts you get. I'll post up a video tutorial sometime.

But in conclusion:
Style: ****
Usability: ***
Quality: * (will it leaks a lot)
Cool: *****
