Holiday in Hong Kong, where I found a 35mm Holga (thought they were all medium format until I saw it in the shop). All the colour pictures here were taken with the Holga. It seems to be unavailable at the moment, so maybe mine is worth more than the £12ish I paid for it. I bought it over a medium format one for its size, wind-on lock and the fact that my scanner only takes up to 35mm. B&W pictures are taken with the QL17 and have signs of the start of my development issues. I thought the banding was due to light leaks at first but I’m pretty sure now it’s something to do with the weird tap water in this building.

UPDATE: 26 March 2009 – Knowing what I know now about development the b&w mess is down to over-agitation. I’m leaving them here for reference. Messy.
