It better be as inexpensive as the original Holgas ad well. ]]>Jul 2nd 2010 5:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 2nd 2010 6:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 3rd 2010 1:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/
Gotta love Holga - truthfully my favorite film camera to use.

Somehow I will buy this when it comes out, with the one requirement that it has a decent high-res sensor (I'd like to see 14 MP). Holga images should be full of the unexpected - but this doesn't mean they should have the digital quality of a cheap camera.]]>Jul 5th 2010 1:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 2nd 2010 5:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 2nd 2010 5:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 2nd 2010 5:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 2nd 2010 5:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 2nd 2010 5:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/
I bought my Holga for $15. Back before they were trendy, it was a cool way to learn how to handle 120 film in the darkroom and make cool but gimmicky images.

Now I see film Holgas sold for $60+ at trendy shops... They are missing the point. "You're doing it wrong" would be the line.

A DX or larger sensor in a Holga? Last generation? So a $400 junk camera? You're doing it wrong.

A medium format sensor? I know you're kidding, but given that most such things cost five figures, that would also constitute doing it wrong.

This looks like a really neat concept camera. It might be worth $200 or so if they do it right. But it will never be te same as a Holga. Todays holga, for real? The camera in an LG keyboard phone. ]]>Jul 3rd 2010 11:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 2nd 2010 5:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 2nd 2010 6:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/
At least you can hold it with both hands!]]>Jul 2nd 2010 8:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/
The Holga is a notoriously flawed camera. So flawed, that the flaws themselves become endearing. The plastic lenses, the light leaks, the limited shutter speeds- all things you DON'T want on a camera, but work for the Holga because, well, that's what you expect to get out of it.

So now we have this concept that promises what. . . crappy digital images in the way that the Holga produces crappy film images? The same thing that you could do in 20 seconds in Photoshop? The same thing that hundreds of apps for the iPhone and Android devices can do?

No thanks.]]>Jul 2nd 2010 10:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/especially in days $15 can buy a crappy .3MP camera...]]>Jul 3rd 2010 12:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 3rd 2010 4:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 3rd 2010 10:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/That is kind of trippy when you think about it.]]>Jul 3rd 2010 1:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 3rd 2010 1:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 2nd 2010 11:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 3rd 2010 1:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 3rd 2010 1:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/I hope this makes it to the retail shelves.]]>Jul 3rd 2010 3:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 3rd 2010 4:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 3rd 2010 8:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 3rd 2010 10:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 3rd 2010 12:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 3rd 2010 12:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 3rd 2010 2:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/holga-d-concept-is-the-modernized-toy-camera-of-your-joyful-yout/Jul 3rd 2010 4:07PM
