It's a better alternative to a Holga or Diana. No light leaks.
It's a simple camera with nothing to break.

Hi, thanks for the response, read from internet describe this camera,
It has only shuttle speed about 1/30, plus B, the aperture limited to f11 and f12.5
How to capture images under such limited setting?

Err... by releasing the shutter? :dunno:

People seem to be able to take fine pics with just two aperture settings and one SHUTTER (not shuttle) speed of 1/60s.

You might also want to check out a sister model of the Clack...called the Click.

I got both. the clack needs a bit of repair, the shutter's stuck. the click's fine. haven't had a chance to run a roll yet, but looking forward to it.

use high speed film, i.e. iso 400 to give you as much speed as possible. i've used iso 100 with a holga, but only on really bright days.

One of the many joys of a Diana or the Holga is the unpredictable fun you get with light leaks....

The Click takes too 'good' quality pictures if you ask me (I have one). The curved film plane is the culprit.
