Which one are you looking for? The one with or without flash?

with flash, I guess? but does that come with the option of disabling the flash? if it doesn't, then the one without flash.

do you have one?? :gbounce:

oh definitely can switch off the flash if you don't wanna use. it's just a little switch on the camera, where the flash indicator light is.

have fun with your Holga!

for me, that it's the least technologically advanced camera i know...

it's a break away from the usual photo-taking techniques... forces you to think more about composition and available light than which lens to use @ what aperture and shutter, etc.

I searched, and found that holga pics have are very different. Some have horrible vignetting, some not so much, some almost none at all.

And there are some very nice waterfalls, which they claimed was taken with holga. Plastic lens....????
