maybe in the wrong site - a newbie, with an holga


Recommended Posts

Probably in the wrong website, but some photos from an holga - recently flushed out of storage. The film is lomo 400ASA. the developer Ilfosol 3. The dust comes free.

How do you do that with plastic lenses, and Eastern European film. They call it Potsdam. Whatever, it's fascinating. Regards, Arthur

Here's a couple more, all with the holga. The first two are from the 'potsdam' 400 ASA

This third one is from the emulsion they call 'berlin', also a nominated 400 ASA film

From my processing, I think both films are closer to ASA 320, possibly even 200 ASA. When things get better, I'll try them on a 'real' camera. I've left most of the dust and debris there to emulate the 'retro' look.

 

I wonder why the forum does't have a pic-o-the week. It would be good to see the results from extreme, retro, and instant cameras. Regards, Arthur

Nice portraits Arthur....

Go for it , start one up and I will stop by with a few. I have boxes full of instant prints and some plastic lens work.

I just noticed the extreme in the sub-heading for the first time, what's that about? sounds intriguing.
