Taken off the lomo site. 
For more years then wed care to count, the Holga has held a firm and unyielding grasp on our psyche. Try as we might, we just cant resist its gleaming plastic lens, its foolish too-big body, its mind-blowing 120 film format, and its sheerly beautiful dreamlike images. Its safe to say that we, along with hundreds of thousands of Lomographers across the world, are obsessed.
In honor of this all-consuming passion, weve created the greatest and only book dedicated to the global Lomographic pursuit of Holga mastery. Edited by Adam Scott, The World Through A Plastic Lens is absolutely bursting with the finest medium-format Holga masterpieces that the world has ever seen. Were talking over 500 images submitted by the Lomographic community at large and hand-edited into a dazzling stream of soft-focus, cross-processed, light-leaked, multiple-exposed, and pseudo-panoramic masterpieces. And sprinkle on top of that a full list of tips and tricks from old faves to ones aint no one ever heard of, revealing Holga addict profiles, and a beautiful hardcover binding that directly recalls the Holgas beautiful plastic faux-leather wrapping. Get a copy, clear your schedule, and join the obsession.

hello! old acct but have nv posted.
currently learning lomography together with a friend..
i've got several qns.. dont mind me asking. :embrass:
1) Opaque tape is just to vary the amount of light leakage so am I right to say that it's a "variable" when it comes to photo shoots? If i want shoots that are more exposed, just reduce the amount of tape right?
2) I read from the holga manual that we can have long exposure shoots so is a tripod needed to prevent the shoot from being shaky? I'm thinking about this qn based on the usage of a normal camera. Long exposure w/o tripod = tired arms and terrible photo.
3) Any lighting issues like other cameras which require slave flash(is there even such a thing for lomography? :dunno: ).
arrrr sorry for asking really noob questions. T____T :embrass:
