Don't pay $50 for this camera.......2007-08-24
My main point in writing this review is that you can get this camera for much, much cheaper by buying it used or elsewhere.
The Holga is fun and I know many people who swear by it. While I personally have never been extremely into lomography/"plastic fantastic" cameras, if you are this is a good camera and the advantage of using medium format film is wonderful. Also there are scores of websites that will tell you all the ways you can modify your Holga. So have fun! But seriously, there's almost no reason why not to buy this item used. I would not pay more than $20 for it.
Fun.......2007-08-06
The camera is fine. Amazon service sucks. I tried several times to cancel this order because I found it cheaper on another site, and although your website says I can cacel anytime prior to shipment, it kept me in the never ending loop without giving me the ability to actually cancel it. You SUCK!
Holga fan!!.......2007-01-18
These camera's are great for enthusiasts! I gifted my roomate this one for christmas (as I already own one, and she borrows it from time to time). We are both photo majors, and it's easy to get swept up in new technology. Sometimes its benificial to go back to your roots ;)
super cool o so very precious.......2006-03-03
rilli a goody goody camera i luuuv it soo much.
Product Description
The iconic Holga has a gaggle of tasty new features. A color wheel tints your flash with yellow, red, blue, or clear gels. A "B" setting holds the shutter open for dreamy, natural background / flashed foreground images, or pure nighttime long exposures. A tripod nut keeps your Holga steady, and a new 6x6 plastic mask yields tighter, sharper images.
Amazon.com Product Description
Get basic and go postmodern at the same time with Lomographic's Holga 120 with built-in flash. This Holga starter kit includes Mes Vacances Avec Holga photo book by Fred Lebain, 1 roll of medium format film, 2 AA batteries, multilingual instructions, poster, and 1 roll of non-residue opaque tape.
Unabashedly low-tech and ideal for beginning photographers, all the operations are completely manual, including the focus, aperture, shutter, and film transport controls. Yet the camera produces an abstract, soft-focus picture that even seasoned photographers find unique. Double exposures, streaming colors, warped vignetting, and unpredictable light leaks are all possible with this camera.
It also has a built-in flash (requires two AA batteries, which are included) to bring about even more photographic possibilities.
The camera uses 120 color or black-and-white film. Rough it out with this affordable camera and reap the rewards of distinctly daring photography. Just don't forget to remove the lens cap.

broken.......2005-09-26
I love the camera, but the flash broke after three flashes. is there a way to exchange it?
cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2005-02-25
really expensive to develop the film though. i mean REALLY expensive. dag.
Expensive kit, fun camera.......2005-02-11
This is a great camera for those wanting to experiment with "artsy" shots, or even advanced photographers wanting to return to their roots. Nothing about these shots are adjustable - f-stop, exposure, ISO are always constant.
The camera is great, but the kit seems a bit overpriced. It includes a Holga book with excellent pictures, but the internet is also an excellent resource for high-quality Holga images. It includes no instructions - because that would take away from the experimentation. It does include one roll of film and a roll of electrical tape (a must-have with all the light leaks on this camera), but purchasing all of the elements in this starter kit seperately would be much less expensive.
This camera is meant for modifications, and there are countless websites that list detailed instructions. My main complaint is a lack of a tripod mount on the camera - although the best pictures are taken in direct, outdoor light when a tripod isn't as necessary. Experimenting with it in the dark since the exposure is constant is nearly impossible.
Overall, I am very happy with the camera. As a primarily digital photographer, it's a great learning experience to return to film in such a non-controllable environment. I would suggest buying the elements seperately from this specific kit, but I give the camera five stars.
Fantastic Toy.......2005-01-22
This cheap little plastic camera is a great toy. Tired of worrying about what f-stop. what lens, that you just need that 80-210 zoom, how many mega pixels or frames per second? Just pick up this camera.
It really makes you think about the shot, not about the gear. Get back to the fun side of photography and be creative.
This kit is worth it, includes film, batteries, a book to give you ideas and a manual.
Worth every cent .......2004-12-11
First off, the Holga is awesome. Its shots are really in a class of its own. I've done both personal and editorial work with this camera - and its images are fantastic. They have real character, great color, and a romantic feel. It is, hands-down, my favorite 120 camera.
The package has really great content. The "Mes Vacances Avec Holga" photo book is loaded with beautifully printed shots. The instructions are indispensable, and the tape, film, and batteries are certainly useful. If you're new to Holga, or buying this as a gift, it's a wonderful package.
Things like taping the sides, shoving cardboard under the film roll, and mod'ing the camera are all part of the charm. Ultimately, the Holga is a dead-simple piece of machinery. Play with it and experiment. If you want a serious and complicated 120 camera, there are plenty of used and new choices out there.
If you want a simple one that takes amazing photos like nothing else, get the Holga.

Customer Reviews:
Great portable HD.......2007-08-23
This portable hard drive is great to take along and it holds a lot of data.
Loved It Until It Died!.......2007-07-23
After two months of use, one day the computer stopped recognizing the drive. I called Seagate, spent an hour on the phone troubleshooting with them only to learn that the drive is basically dead. My company's IT dept. confirmed this.
When I called warranty service, Seagate said the warranty had expired. I told them the drive was only a few months and there is a one-year warranty so how could the warranty have expired? Very frustrating so now I have to send all kinds of proof for a product that was a gift, pretty challenging. Also their service center is in India so you get occassional bad phone connections and some difficulty communicating.
More than anything, the massive loss of data is really, really bad. I got a quote from them to recover the data: $1,400. I don't have that kind of money to get my data back.
Buyer Beware.
Great Product.......2007-05-10
It's unfortunate that others have had difficulty with this drive. I'm a teacher who stores student PowerPoints, Podcasts, Word documents, etc. It has held up well with no problems. I bought the pink Komen edition for my personal use and it has worked equally well. I am a Mac user; I wonder if the problems others are having are from a PC?
Doesn't Last Long!!!.......2007-03-25
This drive is not reliable. Read the other reviews here. Mine died exactly 7 months after I bought it. No chance to recover the data on it either. In addition, the drive speed when it was working is slooooow. You would be much better off with a flash drive.
Excellent Product.......2007-03-10
This product is fantastic...first flash drive I have ever purchased, and my first purchase from Amazon. It was inexpensive for the amount of storage, and three other people who have seen it since my purchase, bought the same one. Highly recommend it!

ectaco is bad in general.......2005-12-11
don't know about this version but I got the english-french one and yes I agreed with other reviewers that buttons are cheap...voice is not clear and not durable. I ended up having to buy a new one from another company later on because it's just horrible. now I am taking up a new language and I am surprised I have not found a good arabic - english dictionary out there.
A RIP OFF.......2005-10-09
Don't buy it--WAAAY OVERPRICED!! The buttons are cheap, and the voice is not clear. There is no French dictionary, contrary to the advertisement. I wasted my money, and I can't send it back. By the way, G. Hallaq, who writes a good review of this computer, is the guy selling them!!! Cheat!!!
Voice synthesis is very bad.......2005-06-29
Don't buy this if you are looking for a translator that pronounces (speaks) words. It sounds like early 1980's computer voice synthesizers and the result is very poor. Enligh is my first language, and it is difficult for me to understand the English words it speaks. Some of the words, I could only understand because I was looking at the written word on the screen at the same time I was listening to the spoken word. When I tried the French words on several native French-speaking people, it was difficult for them as well. It does written translations OK. The user interface is a little bit awkward and not very intuitive.
