Holga 120FN Medium Format Camera

' Incredible fun and truly educational' were just a couple of the comments from photographic students who recently tried the new range of compact, medium format cameras now available through Firstcall.

This world-famous brand is taking photography by storm because it allows the photographer to break free from technology. With one button and two knobs, it is the kind of camera that makes you want to go out and shoot pictures. At under £30 (OK it is made of plastic but is far from being a toy) you can afford to experiment and really free your mind. Teachers will love it too for the ease of classroom instruction, personal image making and fine art photography. The 120FN has a fixed lens f8 and 1/100th sec. shutter speed and a built-in flash. The camera comes with a free Holga manual to help you get the most from your medium format work.

Do not also forget that when enlarging the negative you will need a different lens (75mm or 80mm) to what you normally use for 35mm.
