About this item
- Pinhole Exposure: It lets light pass through the pin hole, to hit the film directly, causing exposure without passing through any lens.
- Panoramic View: The camera enjoys a super wide panoramic view with the horizontal exposure angle reaching as wide as 120 degree. Aperture: F133.
- Film to Use: Accommodate all 120 format films. The use of exposure speed ASA 100 films on sunny days and ASA 400 on cloudy days or indoor occasions is recommended.
- Two different Frame Size Masks: one is for 8 frames of 6x9 cm each per roll and another is for 6 frames of 6x12 cm each per roll.
- Multiple-Exposures Effect: As the film is advanced manually, the camera can help achieve special effects through multiple exposures by NOT advancing the film after a frame has been exposed. Each depression of the Shutter Release Button will bring about another exposure.

Don't underestimate this plastic fantastic.
Exactly what I expected and following the shutter speed recommendation on the camera worked well. Very little light leaks giving the shot some character. Tripod and shutter release cable for zero movement. The perfect tool to develop and understand shutter speed and aperture management. Also help new student focus on composition. I added some cyanotype b/w film contact prints. Timing is everything to get the best shot. I recommend under expose if you want to attempt this your self.

Pinhole Picture Perfect
Pinhole photography isn’t for everyone, but for those who enjoy lensless photography, Holga makes a good camera. I do recommend some extra rubber bands to secure the back, a tripod and a cable release to get you started. A quick internet search on reciprocity will help also. This isn’t my first Holga WPC, but that’s my fault. I missed the camera so much I’ve purchased another. The camera is ripe for modifications and hacks.

Legendary
Picture quality isn't "good" but it's random and divine. A wonderful camera for people who want to strip down to a minimal kit.

Wide pinhole classic!
The Holga 120WPC is a classic pinhole camera. I gave it 3 stars for image quality, but it’s a pinhole camera and you should expect soft images - definitely NOT digital sharpness. The bubble level and cable release abilities are a step above a Diana F+. You get this camera for the wide image ability. Hopefully they have started to make them again. If not - look for one in the used market and expect to pay a lot more!

Great camera - amazing customer support!
The camera is fabulous - exactly what I wanted. But I'm also very impressed by the seller's customer service. One of the frame size masks was missing from my camera, so I wrote to the seller. And within a few days, I received an entirely new camera with both of the frame size masks - no exchange, a whole new camera! So I appreciate that and want to recommend both the cool little crazy camera and the fabulous seller!
