Understanding Different Holga Models
I get a lot of Holga questions, and I must admit that thanks to lomography.com Holgas and Dianas seem to have taken on a life of their own… I also must admit that I’m feeling pretty old, considering that I use a Holga 120s and a Woca and both have been discontinued for a looooong time. So I swiped this little list (from Wikipedia, link below) for those of you trying to make sense of the madness that is picking a Holga today.
