    got a holga lomo, been playing round with it, can’t really develop myself, dont know how, so i wann print them, or better, get them onto digital format, ow best to go about this,scanning seems expensive and my own scanner wont cut it. Also whats the best film for holga fisheye, i was using 200iso, think 400 was recommended, i was thinking 3200 b and w for concert/gig photography , but i also like the very saturated fuji colour film (i think). any advice appriciated.

    A film like Tri-X or HP5 would be great for the Holga. Can’t advise on the scanning though.

    How much is scanning?

    Well, you can’t print shot shots without developing the film first. Unless you’re doing something like shooting 35mm film with your holga many photo labs will develop and print your shots for you (I personally use O’Leary’s Camera World), and scan them, too. That is if you shoot colour. If you shoot BW you might have problems finding somebody who would develop it for you.
    And if you want to get digital files from your holga there three ways to do it:
    1) Scan your film or have it scanned
    2) put your film on a piece of glass against a lamp or something and shoot it with a digital camera
    3) Attach digital back to your holga.

    Your initial post casued me to investigate Holga cameras. During this, I discovered the following description of the Out Of Focus statt Autofokus
    accessory:

    Conclusion with standing still. Now rigid photo floats are relaxed! Photography must finally make fun again. The recent photographer generation is in euphoric departure tendency. Their pictures are indistinct, crazy and surprise with undefined colors. Photos are taken spontaneously at small technical expenditure and in conscious rebellion against old picture design rules. http://www.holga.net/out-focus-statt-autofokus-p-1832.html

    Opportunity for a competition: what does that mean? Answers on a postcard, please.

    It means, ” Any old rubbish can be passed off as art.”
