mharris Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 I don't have a toy camera so I just ordered a Holga, I'm going to shoot a WSU football game with it. Shot this on Saturday: http://www.photo.net/photo/6502253 Man those quarterbacks have a lot to think about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emeryfoto Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Let's see: I have 3 Dianas, a Tru-View, 3 Holgas, a Lubitel, a pinhole...... I can't make up my mind, but am leaning towards the Dianas - my favorite!! Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phule Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 At least my Holga with the Polaroid back. I have some Type 84 left. Maybe a pinhole, even if my Zero Image 2000 isn't really a "toy." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susanm Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 It's a good reason to try my pinhole blender again. http://www.pinholeblender.com/pages/instructions.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patrick j dempsey Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Hmm... Ive got a Kodak Pony 135 that needs to be taken out for a spin... not sure if it qualifies as a "toy" persay, but like much of the Kodak stuff of that era it seems to have been geared towards children.

larrydressler Posted October 10, 2007 Author Share Posted October 10, 2007 The Pony has 1 heck of a lens. But hey 1 man's toy is another's staple of life. The idea is to just enjoy and forget all the tech stuff for a day. Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddiefreed Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 What is considered to be a "toy" camera? I'm not sure that pinholes and vintage cameras quality. Right now I'm playing with a Brownie Hawkeye but, when first sold, it was not considered to be a "toy" camera. Would you give a bit more information about what a "toy" camera is and a link to the Toy Camera Day site? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddiefreed Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Here is the site for the WTCA festivities and, looking at the site, it seems anything without wires or batteries is fine! :) http://www.toycamera.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
