The legendary toy camera returns. The Holga 135BC 35mm “Bent Corners” film camera is for those who find beauty in the “flaws”—who chase light leaks, embrace a soft focus, and welcome deep, retro vignetting to craft images that are utterly unique.
What defines the Holga are the very traits that would be considered defects in any other camera. This 135BC model uses an internal mask to artfully crop the image corners, creating its signature dream-like frame. With settings stripped to the essentials, choose between “cloudy” (f/8) and “sunny” (f/11) apertures, and a 1/100 sec. or Bulb shutter speed. The Bulb setting unlocks a world of creative possibility, letting you hold the shutter open to paint with light or capture the haunting glow of cityscapes at night.
Zone focusing is refreshingly simple, from 3 feet to infinity. A tripod mount provides stability for those long exposures, while the hot shoe stands ready for an optional flash. This is a camera designed to bring the fun, the nostalgia, and the beautiful accident back to photography.
The Holga 135BC isn’t just a tool; it’s a return to a classic, lo-fi aesthetic, capable of producing remarkably poetic photographs.
