35mm Modified Holga

I was thinking the other day how cool it would be to be able to expose an entire 35mm negative through my medium format camera. Medium format is about 1.5x times bigger than 35mm, so if I loaded 35mm film into a medium format camera, technically it should expose the entire negative, sprocket holes and all. So I did some reading online, and it seems that this is a pretty popular modification to do to a Holga camera. It’s quite simple, just some elastics, foam, and electrical tape. I really like the results, here are a few form a couple test rolls that I just shot on the way to the store and back. Should be some more interesting subject matter to come later.

Comment if you’re interested,

Holga bar photos

So I took out the ol’ Holga to the bar on the last day of school, just to see what it could come up with. Somehow, I actually managed to shoot the whole roll of film, AND take it out safely, AND not lose it! I was amazed. Anyway, I really like how they turned out, I tried some new things, and they worked out well. One of the nice things about my Holga is that it has a bulb mode. This lets you keep the shutter open for as long as you press it down. This is how the light trails are created. It also lets you do double exposure, which can create some cool effects, anyway, here they are. Comment if you like them!

Until next time,
Dylan
