Holga plus 35mm
I’ve been experimenting with my Holga, putting 35mm film in to see if it’s worth bothering. Judging by the results, I don’t think it is. Out of the roll I shot, I think this is the best shot…
…and I’m not particularly happy with it.
The 35mm film is much narrower than the 6×6 mask I normally have in my holga, and this means that it’s harder to gauge how the image is going to be framed. This gets tricky if you’re used to shooting full frame with the Holga, and explains why the postbox is squashed up against the right of the frame.
Other problems include not knowing how much film you’ve got left (as you lose the frame counter if you’re using 35mm) and having to unload in the darkroom.
All in all, I think I’ll stick to 120 rollfilm!
I get the feeling that somebody is hiding in that thing, or it’s actually a robot made from a mail box.
