Too much fun2009-02-13
I must admit I went back and forth in my mind before plunking down $150 for this thing. Not counting the cost of the film, of course, which is not cheap. I so far have only used Polaroid 669, and that will run you just north of $1 a shot. And it probably will not get cheaper in the future. Fuji makes instant film for this also. I can confirm that Fuji FP-3000B film absolutely works with this back as I just developed a shot 2 minutes ago. So you have other choices besides Polaroid film.

Anyway, in spite of the expense, I absolutely love it! There is just something about the quality of the photo that I cannot duplicate with my Nikon Dxxx. The colors are great and the results are as sharp or sharper than anything I get with my digital. However, this is not intended to be a film versus digital debate - you can read about that anywhere. For me, my Holga and dlsr complement each other and serve totally different purposes.

I admittedly have an addiction to acquiring camera gear, accessories, etc. that far exceed my needs. Too much of it sits in their boxes never to see the light of day. But since I bought the Holga Polaroid back, I find that I not only pick up my Holga every single day, but I do so with a renewed sense of joy and anticipation. That is the true measure, in my opinion, of the worth of any product like this.

It is as simple to use as any similar type back. It attaches via your camera's slide rails and it adds a tripod mount. Just pop in your film, don't forget to move your dark slide, and you are good to go. As is evident from the product photo, it obscures the finder, but it comes with an external finder you can attach to the top of your Holga. Works well enough.

I highly recommend this product because it adds a huge new dimension to the Holga photography experience. I rarely ever used film cameras because I simply don't like waiting for my results, having to drop off/pick up film. This product erases that substantial barrier. It can get a little pricey with the cost of film and all, so just be aware of this going in and enjoy.
This thing is awesome.2008-12-16
So, the polaroid back for the holga is amazing... I have been shooting Fuji instant film with mine and the colors turn out great. Just be prepared to do bulb shots if you're not in bright sunlight. This product is very easy to figure out and install, actually way easier than spooling the 120 film that holgas normally take.
be aware read film requirements2008-11-20
This fuji 100c and 100b does not fit in this particular film back for the holga. it is too long. go the polaroid site and read the pdf on what fit in here.
great camera simple to use! i love it!
This camera Way better than digital!2007-12-29
Okay, it is like this.... this is a review from someone who is so much into cameras its insane.... The film back and the Holga are the most essential...the absolute icons of photographic excellence. I love contrast and color, i love vignetting I love the dreamlike images i get with this set. I do not see digital pictures giving me that. Film is the best image storage and instant is the best this is the greatest pictures instantly but old style photography with romantic dreamy images. This is true Raw format haha. Be hip be cool get this instead of whatever else you will be so happy and impress your friends and family,most of all impress yourself.
