"Good for a few uses, but easily breaks because of low quality. I've had a few of these cameras. Worth it if you get it on sale, but no way should you pay 50 bucks for this"

fantastic!
(July 16, 2012)
"i love this camera, it takes some getting used to. but its wonderful, make sure to check the switch on the bottom i kept leaving mine on bulb. but other than that its fun and very cute. also it doesnt work well in dimmer lighting so use as a daytime camera or invest in a flash :D"
"This is basically the same thing as one of those disposable cameras you can buy for $8. When I bought this I bought it because it was a FILM camera, yes it does take film, but where's the apeture? shutter speed? You can't even focus the thing. Its cheap and plasticky and disappointing. Save yourself $40 and buy a disposable one. This is just a dressed up one of those."

don't waste your money or time
(June 28, 2012)
"i finally got film from this camera developed today. both of the two rolls i shot turned out blurry and terrible, even if the photo was taken while standing completely still.
i was really excited to use this camera, but it disappointed me. it was a waste of money, time, and energy, and i'll never be able to recreate the photos that were ruined. i'm returning it."

Pretty great!
(February 28, 2012)
"I love this camera! It's given me some pretty incredible photos and i'll usually get around 18 shots out of a 24 roll of film. It's also so easy to purchase and develop the film, which is another great aspect. I love the multiple exposures but sometimes it's a little too easy to get them, they'll happen when I don't want them too.. but other than that it's a wonderful camera and I bring it around with me all the time."

unclear photos
(July 26, 2011)
"bought the camera in the store and was excited to develop the pictures. couldn't make out the faces in the 1st roll, it was too distorted. as for the second roll, i was denied by two different developers because they didn't want to waste my money on the shots after previewing it in the negatives. they took a look at it and said i should refund it.. but i threw the box and lost the receipt so i'm stuck with it."
"Those of you looking for a cute and functional camera, don't let the trite weight of the HOLGA 135 fool you. The petite camera lacks nothing in quality, has night/day settings, outdoor, portrait, landscape, and group settings for the lens. Fantastic quality, fantastic camera, beautiful pictures in b&w or colour. ***For the less artistically inclined, like myself, to insert the film, you pull the film-roller up^ but the knob"

Mint Green actually looks blue
(March 22, 2011)
"I really wanted the pale mint green camera but when I got it the color is actually more blue which I'm disappointed about. But I didn't like the other color choices and the camera works as expected so I'm keeping it."
"i have two other holgas, and i think this one is my fav! awesome dreamy photos without the hassle of 120 mm film or special processing. cute and super easy to use."

"i recieved this camera as a gift, and am constantly suprised at the lovely pictures it takes, as a newcomer to the film world it's a process of trial and error, but that's half the fun! only thing is that some instructions are a little hard to understand if you don't know much about holga."
