Lomography Color Flash Holga Camera Starter Kit 829 - 120 Medium Format Film Camera w/ Color Flash

The famous Medium Format 120 Holga Camera by Lomography now is completed with the radically new Color Flash system. Prepare to employ your trusty Holga day or night as the flash opens up new worlds of low-light images with the beloved Holga Camera effects - soft focus, double-exposures, streaming colors, intense vignetting, and unpredictable light leaks. Lomographic Color Flash Holga Camera has a gaggle of tasty new features. A color wheel tints your flash with yellow, red, blue, or clear gels. A "B" setting holds the shutter open for dreamy, natural background / flashed foreground images, or pure nighttime long exposures. A tripod nut keeps your Lomography 120 Film Holga Camera steady, and a new 6x6 plastic mask yields tighter, sharper images. Lomography Colorflash Holga Starter Kit 829 includes the abbreviated softcover version of "The World Through A Plastic Lens" book and everything you need to get shooting: Holga Medium Format Camera, 120 film roll, AA batteries, opaque tape, editorial poster, full documentation.

Lomography Holga 120 Camera Features:

Plastic 60/8 Optical Lens:
The Holga Camera 's heart and soul. A dead-simple multi-element plastic lens that makes colors radiate and makes total image sharpness take a brief holiday. You can also expect a bit of vignetting (darkening) around the edges - especially on a sunny day. The focal length is approximately equal to 38mm on a standard 35mm camera - so it's a little bit wider than the normal perspective.

120 Medium Format Film:
From glossy fashion magazine covers, to dead-serious landscape shots, to the "Electric Slide" dance at Uncle Bob's wedding, the camera of choice if very likely to be medium format. Created by the Kodak company in 1898, medium format film has filled the guts of professional cameras for well over 100 years. At four times the size of 35mm film, it offers amazing resolution and deep, fantastic colors. A typical 120 print has an incredible richness and depth that no 35mm image can touch.

Built-In Colorflash: A beautiful and recent feature of Lomo Holga 120 Medium Format Camera. A little wheel sits around the powerful built-in electronic flash and allows you to choose a red, yellow, or green filter to tint your burst of flash light. It's mad fun at night or during the day (as a fill flash). There's a clear filter too for those days when you want to keep it real.

Uncoupled Advance and Shutter
After you shoot a Holga image, you can choose to advance it one full frame, a partial frame, or not advance at all. 120 film shows its exposure count on the back, and you can read it through a little red window on the Holga Camera rear door. This feature of Lomography 120 Holga Camera allows you to shoot limitless times on the same frame (multiple exposures) and advance only partial frames to create a semi-panoramic overlapping image.

Variable Shutter Speeds:
You lucky duck. Lomo Holga Camera has two to choose from. The standard daytime speed of 1/125 second or the exotic long-exposure "B" setting - where you can hold the shutter open for as long as you want. Use "B" to capture dazzling night images without a flash. Pair the "B" setting with a flash shot to freeze your sharp, flashed subject in front of a streaming, glowing background. Team the "B" setting with a tripod (via the bottom tripod thread) for a sharp night portrait.

Variable Aperture:
A little weather guide helps you out. Choose f/11 for sunny shots and f/8 for cloudy and nighttime shots. Pretty easy, that one.

Zone Focus:
Fun, fabulous, and very fast. The Holga Lens has four focus settings - portrait, small group, big group, and infinity. Guess as best you can and fire away.
