New York Institute of Photography - Tips for Better Pictures - Hey it's an article about Coney Island and using Holga Cameras--two of my favorite things - weee!
One thing I totally disagree with in this article and I read it over and over when people talk about using a holga--taping it closed with black tape. Do these people actually use the camera again? Do they actually use a holga? Do they have nothing better to do than apply and remove tape? I can't image taping up a holga "to stop light leaks." Maybe I'm just a freak about sticky stuff, but I would throw the damn camera away after one application of black tape. It'd be like dipping your camera in lemonade. Use velcro and get on with your life.
