One of the most iconic toy cameras available, the Holga 120N is characterized by the unique image quality it is able to produce, along with its modest design and minimal controls. Featured here with a black finish, the Holga is best known for its standard-length 60mm f/8 plastic lens that produces a soft, dream-like aesthetic, which is further accentuated by the inherent vignetting and light leaks caused by the plastic body and simple construction. A choice between f/8 or f/11, or "cloudy" and "sunny", aperture settings is available, along with 1/100 sec. or bulb shutter speed settings and a zone focus system for focusing as close as 3' away.With a Ilford's HP5 Plus Black and White Negative Film is a traditional and versatile panchromatic film designed for general use in a wide variety of shooting conditions.

I bought this to use in a college Photography II class for an assignment. I own a 50+ year old Diana which is a similar camera. The Holga despite being complained about being plastic is a lot more thick, durable, and well made than my antique Diana which literally falls open unless you tape it closed. Every Holga gets different effects due to the poor quality plastic lens. Mine had vignette on only two corners, no light leaks, and a fairly clear image throughout, with the absolute clearest a small circle at the center. I got no weird effects. I never taped my Holga as I wanted to see if it had light leaks. It was interesting in the class to see how many different effects happen all from new Holgas with existing lenses. I was able to do double and triple exposures. I actually wish my lens was more distorted especially at the edges but there are things I can do to modify it if I want to. Regarding the price I cannot complain as used antique plastic cameras like the Diana sell for a lot more. I used black and white Ilford 400 film and did my own developing and my own printing. Best results for single exposures are done outdoors in full sun. I didn’t even bother to try to do an interior shot. I do not desire to use flash. Rating 5 stars = Love It.

The camera itself was great! I loved how easy it was to load the film (after research). The camera body is very dainty as it is made out of plastic but it was okay for the price. It really is a “toy camera”. I haven’t developed the film yet but I used a variety of brands with the camera. One thing I did not like was the packaging. I wish I had taken photos of how poorly the camera was placed into the original box. The box of Ilford HP5 of open even though the actual package containing the film was still in tact and unopened. I was very disappointed in the packaging. Used or not it was not okay.

Great little camera. I have shot it a few times and loved the results. On my first go around i did not notice any light leaks onto the film. My second go around i taped it with gaffers tape just to be sure. The lens is pretty good for a “toy camera” i got pretty sharp focus with it. It is a classic and in the right hands you’ll get awesome pics. It is all plastic so be careful with it.

The camera came in okay shape and the film came with it.

Haven’t developed my film yet, but a lot of videos on the Holga 120N say to expect less light leaks than the original Holga because of some adjustment so that’s good! (I still taped up the back film view to avoid anymore tho).Other than the (expected) light leaks, this camera is exactly as pictured! A cheap but durable camera to capture point and shoot films.I would suggest watching videos on how to operate and what to expect because that helped me the most! (The general consensus is that it’s a great starter film camera used by a lot of artists to focus on composition rather than quality lol)

I like this one. Holgan 120N is good.

Got this for my 22-year-old son, who had read up on these and wanted it for the unique photos that come out. When I give it high marks for picture quality, there is a caveat: it takes quirky light altered photos that are due to the cheap nature of the materials used for the camera – do not expect standard photos from this camera! I would recommend you read up on these. There is a big following based on their quirky nature. It is just what my son wanted and he is very happy with the purchase.Oh one more thing as a caution. These take a very unusual size of film. You may want to ensure you have someone around that develops it. I believe Walmart does in some stored, but not others. That is not a deterrent on the camera itself, just something you need to consider.

The product is decent fit the price. It’s my first time with medium format and only half of the frames were developed. The ones that did come out were good.

This thing is about as low tech as you can get. Focusing is pretty much guess work. When it comes to exposure, you have basically two settings: sunny and shade/cloudy. It’s very easy to accidentally double expose your film since there’s no catch preventing it, you just manually advance it. It’s all plastic and the back panel is held on by a two metal sliders so there’s a chance of getting light leak. But all of that is probably the reason you’re considering this camera to begin with. It’s got a very distinct look/personality to it. I do like the film that came with it. That’s what was used for the attached images. I will say though, that the numbering on the film was sometimes difficult to read through the red window on the back of the camera and I sometimes had to squint in order to see it. There are other films out there that have larger, thicker numbering that’s easier to read but I do like the images from this film better.
