Holga ‘mod’
Today I pimped my Holga, some advanced improvements. First the puppet works like magic when photographing around children and with the green dot I am sure to step into the footsteps of ‘the great masters’ who all used cameras with green dots. Even my son Rijk (2) expressed a spark of recognition seeing the green dot, this is how famous it has become after all these years. Yes I am very proud to have a camera with a green dot, and I am sure the price will go up with time because of it. Hmmm… my biggest dilemma is if I should keep in in my vitrine, safely behind glass like a true collector or if I actually should photograph with it…..you know many cameras with the green dot are like ‘Cartier’ necklaces and are very much wanted by street thieves and pickpockets. I will have to call a respected auction house to get an estimate for this rare green dotted model, insurance is the safest way to go in my opinion…
