Today I finished off my first roll in the Holga, which I promptly dropped in to Clock Tower Cameras in Brighton. The prints should be ready on Monday, and I can’t wait to see the results (however they may turn out).
The film I used was Fuji Pro 400H, which is a colour film ideally suited for indoor lighting and overcast conditions outdoors. It’s supposed to be stored under 10 degrees Celsius (e.g. in the fridge), which is something I’m not used to!
I thought I’d try to be patient and wait to see how my first roll turned out before loading the next one, so that I could tinker with the camera to improve the results next time around. However, me being me, I just couldn’t wait and have loaded in a roll of Ilford HP5 plus 400 ISO black and white film. There are plenty of brilliant examples of black and white Holga shots, so I’m hoping I can achieve something interesting too.
