Holga Posts Coming Soon

I know I haven't posted much in the way of Holga shots over the last few months, but I'm finally playing catch up. Got 4 rolls processed, three color and one black & white, and have been scanning them in all weekend. I think I got a good amount of keepers. Stay tuned.

Welcome to the family. My "new" Polaroid SX-70 Sonar OneStep. Only shot a couple of tests shots, but so far it seems like I got a good one. Now when the weather gets better I'll be able to actually take it outside.


Test shot from my "new" SX-70 Sonar, so far so good.

Fade + New Gear

Few more Polaroid Fade to Black SX-70 shots. One regular shot and two abstract accidental shots. My SX-70 started acting up. Something is wrong with the shutter/exposure. Then, I actually broke it (I've owned it for 12+ years). Ugh. The side with release lever has always been a bit stiff to open compared to the other side. I went to unfold it and open it up and I managed to actually tear the view finder on the left side. Its still some what functional, need some sort of wedge tool to pop open that side. Still going to try to fix it. Until then, I just received a potentially good ebay score for a SX-70 Sonar. So far, preliminary empty pack with battery testing and general focusing and open and closing looks/feels good. Overall condition is really good. Will put film in and test next and report back tomorrow. Seems like the sonar models are easier to get for good (not inflated) prices.

Did some head shots for my friend Julia a couple of weeks ago. This was one of the shots for me. I think I had the portrait kit on. Impressed by the sharpness of the film.
