Yay for your Holga week and this video!! You got some really cool shots!! Enjoyed your impressions. I have a couple Holgas and was interested in this one, so I appreciated your views. I smashed the like button, so I think all your little eggies (including me) would appreciate a video with your Holga and a flash! Thanks for your videos and your channel, I always enjoy!!!
These light trails are awesome, and it doesn't look that "bad" in black and white. Normally, i would prefer them in colour. My first camera was the Canon AV-1 and trust me, leaving the shutter at bulb for the WHOLE time knowingly was even worse. We learn from mistakes and i am glad i did that. :D Some of my best shots were taken on an Agfa Isoly, which is kind of like a Holga. Some people claim that the Isoly is slightly sharper, maybe a tiny bit. Same issue, always watch out for the switches. :D Medium format on 4x4 has some charme to it, getting 16-17 shots out of one roll is actually pretty cool. Maybe you wanna try it at some point?^^
Hey man!! I thought it was cool haha. I'm sure I was in the most touristy area imaginable though, would like to see the real Ohio. Cheers man, we will get together soon haha
Since you love lo-fi so much, here's a special thing I think you should buy when you have a spare 10$ burning a hole in your pocket. Get a DZ09 smartwatch. It's got a nice 320x240 camera in it that's sure to turn you into an international man of mystery 😉 And yes, the Micro SD card you put in it will probably cost more than the whole watch.
@@SweetLouPhotography I totally forgot to mention something: if you get one, make sure you disable the motion sensing in the menu; it's a real battery hog.
I actually am working on a Kodak Ektar H35 vid right now. They are different though, considering the H35 is a half frame. So I'm not sure if that matters to you or not. The H35 is way smaller, lighter and more pocketable. I like the look of it way more, but it's fixed focus. I think both cameras have their pros and cons, depends on what you're trying to do with it. The H35 is probably the more economical choice, since it can stretch a roll out further
@@SweetLouPhotography Thanks so much for your reply! I look forward to watching the Kodak Ektar H35 video; I think it will be important in making my decision. But in regard to what I'm trying to do with it: I just want a simple, small point and shoot camera that I can take traveling. Nothing professional (obviously), but just for the aesthetic of the photos I will capture
Bulb keeps the shutter open as long as your finger is on the shutter button (or you could use a cable release instead of holding it down) It's used for longer exposures, for example you can set it to bulb mode and do a long exposure of the stars trailing by. Hope that helps

It's all about those moments bro, really dig the light trails and especially the silhouette airport shot.
Thanks man!!

I appreciate the "This video is now over." I always do struggle to realize when a video has ended 📼

Love the light trails! For the record, some people claim that 10 minutes in Ohio feels like an eternity - I’ll catch you next time haha.

saw the winking lizard sign and wondered if they were near you, but you were near me :) Ohio here :)
I tried their hottest wing, that shit was no joke hahahahah
@@SweetLouPhotography ya we take wings pretty serious around here
I think every holga user has accidently set their camera to B at least once haha
Did you ever experience your photos overlapping ?

yoooooooo thanks for the recommendation, that sounds rad

I have this camera and looking for a flash for it. What’s a good recommendation?
You talk about vignetting. Maybe you know it, maybe not but BC means black corners.
Anyway, subbed.
5:40 okay, you know it.
I love these! Would you recommend the Holga 135BC or the Kodak Ektar H35? I want a fun little film camera to take aesthetic photos like yours :)

What vhs camera you using
I just bought this camera and I have no experience with 35mm - when do I use bulb? Thanks for the video!!
Bulb keeps the shutter open as long as your finger is on the shutter button (or you could use a cable release instead of holding it down) It's used for longer exposures, for example you can set it to bulb mode and do a long exposure of the stars trailing by. Hope that helps
Can you turn the vignette

I can't tell you how many times I accidently use BULB on my Holgas!!!
so glad I'm not alone lol
