The Holga Mod: Modifying the Aperture Settings
written by urban_spacegirl on 2012-04-03 #gear #tutorialsIf you are a hardcore Holga fan or have already taken the time to look up some sites featuring Holga mods and hacks (or to take apart your camera for that matter), you will know that the Holga, despite sporting a switch for two different aperture settings for sunny and cloudy conditions, only features one aperture. This is due to the fact that switching from cloudy to sunny causes an arm to slide in front of the lens opening, the area of the hole on that arm (which is supposed to allow less light in) is larger than that of the aperture; i.e. the amount of light remains the same.

written by tomas_bates on 2010-12-13 #gear #tutorialsRemember those plastic masks that came with your Diana? You know the ones to use for panorama shots and 12-into-16 shots. We have found a way to recycle them! Hopefully, you haven’t chucked them in the trash already. They slide perfectly in front of your film. When something is put directly in front on the film it can create interesting effects on the shot. Try it out. We have a couple of mask ideas to get you started: the Scratch Mask and the Filter Mask
