I'm interested in getting a Holga too. Can anyone advise me on the cost of the film it uses and how much is it to develop/scan it? Cheers.

i believe the ans is buried somewhere in this post! :bsmilie:

the 120 film can be purchased from places like ruby and CP. personally, i like to go ruby for their ilfords. CP has a bigger stock of kodaks. cost ard $6/roll.

development, i send it to ruby. i believe someone else mentioned KT also develops? my contact print is $10/sheet. development into prints are counted as per piece. so, u have to check with the shop cos different sizes different price. scan... aiyah... i was told at ruby its very rare for 120 scanning. i was quoted $10 per neg (yes, u read it right. its per neg not per roll)...

I do all my 120 development at Ruby too. It is not a replacement for careful self-done development, but nowadays, I'm not that excited in swishing chemicals about in my house.

Just collected my 120 scans from Foto Station @ Marine Terrace (on Terence's recommendation) and am very happy with the results. The owner charged me $10 per roll. I'm not a techie, but the files should be sufficient for most purposes (print size = 28x28").
