Taking a break from digital. With the diminishing Holga offerings from B&H, I thought It might be a good time to order a Holga 120GFN. It arrived, along with the 120 Pan from HolgaCamera.com yesterday.
I'm so glad I waited. This new Holga works correctly right out of the box, no mods necessary. I never did get around to modifying my 120FN. The 120 Pan as well. There are slight changes in the tooling of the GFN, but the most noticeable difference is the lens barrel. They got rid of the focus scale insert, and now tampo the scale right on the barrel itself. The tooling of the barrel is also better in general. The 120 Pan is even flocked inside.
As these came directly from Hong Kong, it’s likely closer to the source and thus newer stock. I can’t wait to shoot with these and to spend some quality time with Diana as well.
