I recieved my holga starter kit yesterday. Right away I loaded it and started snapping away! It's been fun to try out the different types of effects you may possiably get with the Holga. I probably won't get to see the results though...my two year old go to the camera and opened the back of it, exposing the film to light...hopefully I might get something from that roll. But now I need to find him a camera so he'll stop being jealous of mine...and so that people won't think I'm actually using his camera.
Anyways the kit is awesome and has what I believe, to be everything you need to start. It has the camera (duh...), one roll of film, batteries, tape, booklets about the Holga (I was reading in the review for another starter kit that they thought this book to be useless...when I thought it was maybe not necessary...but could point you to try cool things with your Holga). I'll update as I go on. But so far this is a five. Everything I expected came with the kit, and I'm hoping to get some awesome pics out of this camera! :)

I absolutely love this camera! I usually shoot with a Rebel xsi, but this is so fun for a change and I love the way the images look. :) I would totally recommend this for anyone who's thinking about getting it. Everything that came in the kit helps too. I love the book outlining what the Holga is all about and showing pictures from other people.

The Holga is a fun camera. If you have not had a chance to enjoy the capabilities of medium format pictures and the enlargement capabilities as well as that old time feeling of using film again, you are missing an excellent chance. Inexpensive, the Holga, tho not your professional level, still is a blast to use.
