broken
I love the camera, but the flash broke after three flashes. is there a way to exchange it?

cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
really expensive to develop the film though.i mean REALLY expensive.dag.

Expensive kit, fun camera
This is a great camera for those wanting to experiment with "artsy" shots, or even advanced photographers wanting to return to their roots. Nothing about these shots are adjustable - f-stop, exposure, ISO are always constant.

never got it
i wish i didn't have to give this rating any stars, seeing how i never physically had the item to judge what sort of star rating it should get.ups said they delivered it.they didn't.now i'm getting strung along on some make believe investigation.it seems neither ups nor the seller want to work with me or really care if the situation gets resolved.it's really annoying since i wanted to take these cameras to hawaii with me on my honeymoon.oh well, i guess when you order something online you can't really expect it to arrive when it says it will, or ever for that matter.

Toy Cameras Bring Me Joy.
This affordable toy camera is renowned by artists around the globe, and for good reason too!Once you take this bad boy out of it's box and load your 120 film, the fun begins. It's small and light enough to bring it almost everywhere. The pictures that come out of this camera are something. Don't bother picking up some electricians tape because unexpected light leaks are always fun. Saturation, colour, and vignetting add to my love of this camera. Save yourself some money and pair this up with the Lomo Colour Flash. You can use it with your other cameras for extra fun! Double exposures are no problem, just click away without advancing the film.

Five star
It comes with a plastic lense, it takes 120 film, there's no flash, no light metering, no focusing. If you're not familiar with 120 film (not every pharmacy develops 120 film), then you should do a little research before you buy this camera ([...]). Most folks buy this as secondary camera, or just as a fun camera. The picture quality is different from camera to camera, and is not par with digitals. It does take unique shots, it is a cheaply priced camera, it feels cheap in your hands. I give it five stars, because for the price it captures my surroundings in a way that no digital can replicate. ... Read more

Caveat Emptor--
These cameras are not constructed to the standard of any of the Japanese, German or American TLR's.You are much better served buying an excellent used TLR off of E-Bay than one of these.The Red Chinese haven't caught up with the free world yet in the world of photography.These are essentially handbuilt with the result that they feel and act homemade.Images produced can vary from atrocious to pretty good, depending on the individual camera.Major weaknesses have been wind problems and particularly shutter failures.They simply aren't up to our standards.So, if you insist on a 'new' camera for this price, buy at your own risk! ...

Great Price Great Lenses
I have purchased two of these cameras. In hindsight, I really should have gone with the 645 Pro TL. But the price was right, I'm a photograhpher on a budget. The purchase price gets one star. Mamiya lenses for this camera are, in my opinion, the finest. But:
That's not the 645E manual, but Mamiya is good stuff.
The manual that Amazon linked on this page is for the Mamiya 645 Pro, which is a lot more camera than the 645E. Having the 645 Pro manual is misleading here. The 645E is not modular like the 645 Pro, though to be fair the 645AF isn't either.Read more

Takes a bit of work but good things can be done with it...
1st.DO NOT BUY a Holga expecting very much.It is very cheap simple camera that isn't worth much.Exposure control is to be kind; very limited, and focusing with one is a pain.
Fine Art Camera
For all its imperfections, it more than makes up for it with its unique quirks. The cheap plastic lens is its personality, as every Holga is different. It seems that the more lensaberrations that it has, the better. Almost every type of photographic genre has been approached with a Holga, from fashion to fine art. The quality of the images resembles dreams and mental snapshots out of the subconscious. There is definitely a melancholy, nostalgic quality that you can also get from a Holga, that you can't capture with great Japanese or German cameras and lenses. It's cheap, it's primitive, but it offers another totally different look at the world.

Fun camera with surprises...
This is a great camera, used by beginners and pros alike. I read an article about a pro photographer who hangs 500 ft backdrops behind sequoia trees, photographing with $$$ equipment...but also is a Holga addict, shooting wildlife in Africa.

Good starter camera for medium format photography
This camera was a birthday gift and I've been using it for nearly six months without any problems. It's very basic -- no metering, awkward viewfinder and focusing. The build quality is somewhat questionable -- it's still in one piece but after a week of ownership I notice some of the cover material started to peel away.
Not bad for entry, but lacking in some features.
The fact that this camera is still being made during the onslaught of digital tech is a feat in itself, and is a viable alternative to all the bells and whistles of your basic 3,4 or 5 megapixel camera. The quality of the lens is average and certainly useable, but it would be even better if you could change lenses on the fly to ones of different focal lengths ,such as a 110mm or 40mm to give you more options.Also I would like to see the option to change from 120 to 220 format in case I want to shoot more pics per roll. This is the case for Mamiya cameras of similar design. If my budget was so tight that I couldn't afford the used $300 Mamiya and I didn't want to deal with digital hassles, this Seagull GC-109 would definately be in the running for my camera dollars.

Buy One
I have recently purchased the Seagull GC-109 as an upgrade from my Nikon F60. Although the F60 is an outstanding camera i was not able to print the sizes i needed with the basic 35mm film.However now i am able to print large pictures without any distortion.Its amazing and really nice to use. I advice any one whos looking for an ugrade to buy one. ... Read more
