You can load 35 mm film into a holga 120 by putting spacers, such as foam, strofoam, stacked pennies, or anything the will securely hold the 35mm film case in place of the taller 120 case. You must then tape up the back and sides of the camera to avoid light leaks, unless you want them. Always put at least one layer of tape on the back to not completely ruin your film.

You can get a 35mm back for the holga 120 if you're not comfortable with do a DIY solution, but DIY is what makes toy cameras really great. The difference in buying the popular, cheap factory-made 35mm back is the frame is cropped to fit the standard size of 35mm frame. This means more individual photos, but takes away the ability to do sprocket hole shots like this and makes the shot more narrow. If you go the DIY route, you can make your own 35mm sized frame by cutting a 35mm frame-sized square from a piece of cardboard and putting it in your 120.

There is a 35mm film back for 120 Holga's that is pretty cool, though a bit more expensive. The 35mm back made by superheadz turns the 120 into a fully featured 35mm holga camera, with a 35mm film counter, frames that allow sprocket-shots, and all the 35mm mechanics built right in. If you want to buy a 35mm back, you should buy this one.

Again, toy camera photography is all about DIY and imperfections, so I would encourage going the DIY route for the getting most exploration, invention and adventure possible with a holga 120

loading 35mm into your 120 means you have to wind the film in very specific rotations, as 120 winder doesn't click or stop after each frame. the one exception of this is using the superheadz back. See here: http://photondetector.com/tools_ref/135-advance/

Also re-winding film must be done in a dark area, like a bathroom or closet without any lights on. 120 cameras don't rewind, so you have to take the film out and rewind it by hand. The superheadz back has a winder built into it.

squarefrog (who is also a member of this subreddit) has a great guide to using 35mm in a 120 holga: http://www.squarefrog.co.uk/techniques/using-35mm-film.html

I started with the holga 135bc, which takes 35mm film and superimposes a fake vignette over every photo. The vignette effect is great, but I really wish I just started with a 120. The 135 series is very limiting compared to the 120s.

processing black and white film is easy and cheap and does not require any expensive equipment. Developing color film requires more chemicals and very accurate temperature control. Color is usually not processed outside of professional labs.

Are you kidding me? That lomo is a great option for wide panoramics, as the next step up in cameras like that are the Hasselblad X-Pan and the Fujis which go into the 1000's of $.

Smart shooter that guy.

No they are all kinda cruddy cameras. Even when they were new. If you want an older style camera you could try something like this.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00N2G1Q6G/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_YZ.bzbCYV7Q7W

I have one, it would give better images than some of the cameras in your post. if you like the look of the stuff in /r/toycameras then it would be a cheep and decent choice.

If you want take less fuzzy pictures and would like to use your camera indoors you would need to look at either old pro grade camera or a newer consumer film camera.

u/MinkOWar · 2 pointsr/photography

Eh... wake me up when they can finagle something like Ricoh's APS-C M Mount sensor into a body like the X10, something like these.

This is my first time commenting on this subreddit, nice to meet you all

u/jippiejee · 1 pointr/photography

> preferably with no autofocus etc...

Why? Most people look better in focus and they're all cheap now. Check amazon for example for one of the real nice ones.

u/gg_allins_microphone · 1 pointr/analog

I've been using a Nikon One•Touch Zoom90s for the past few months and loving it. You can see some shots here.

u/lovesickremix · 1 pointr/photography

this one is probably the best Amazon FTW, because it seems to be easier to build than the konstructor, but still cheap and allows you to see how the camera is made and experience photography at that level.

u/turkeyvulturebreast · 1 pointr/nostalgia

Who remembers the 3D disposable camera? They were cool, but took forever to get them developed because they had to be shipped out.

u/TheEyeofEOS · -1 pointsr/analog

Digital cameras were modeled after film cameras, shooting one or the other is exactly the same. Film just doesn't have a preview LCD.

If you want to know what it's like to shoot film: Pick an ISO and stick with it. Anywhere from 50 to 1600. Don't change it to any other ISO setting until you've shot 36 pictures, then you can change it for another 36. Keep in mind that a film roll only has 36 pictures and it will cost you anywhere from $20-$40 for those 36 pictures regardless if they're good or bad so only press that shutter when you mean it. Then just turn off image preview and don't look at the pics til you download them to your computer. You can shoot in any mode you want. P mode, A mode, Tv mode, TTL flash, image stabilization, autofocus or full manual everything.. whatever doesn't matter. Film cameras have the same features as your DSLR and Canon/Nikon film cameras use the same lenses as full frame DSLR, they can be shared. Now you know exactly what it's like to shoot film.

Kodak made a film camera with a preview LCD

u/applejacks16 · 3 pointsr/Cameras

I don't understand the question. All should have their model number on the side somewhere([Olympus I found by searching name]
(https://www.amazon.com/Olympus-SuperZoom-160-QD-camera/dp/B00006I5KP)). My dad used to have that sony video camera but I don't remember what it is called.

u/10lubak · 18 pointsr/gadgets

The most sensible product from that company is the four lens camera that takes four pictures immediately after each other.

But I believe you can do that digitally nowadays.

u/jeffk42 · 1 pointr/analog

Amazon, or search for "Recesky TLR"

I lost the fear of being outgunned after working in the San Francisco Mayor's Communications Office. I saw freelancers show up to press events with Canon Ae-1's, iPhones, and even this:
