New topic... HOLGA





I'm kind of taking a bit of a turn away from the whole 'web designer'
type site.. Basically I have thought of something which might be a bit
more relevant to one of my current hobbies..

I am proposing to design a simple beginners guide to the Holga camera...
Yes, there are quite a few sites out there regarding this at present,
but being a semi-beginner myself I haven't come across one site yet
which actually explains the basic starting points of getting into Holga
yet... I have had so many problems just trying to find out totally BASIC
stuff like how to load film and which film is best which which setting
etc...

I could also possibly put in a page for a 'personal shopping assistant'
for anyone in Tokyo who had the same hell of a time that I did trying to
find information on where to get film cross processed (VERY hard to find
info on this in Japan - and when you do find it it is all in Japanese).
Not sure if this would be very popular, but you never know.. I could
offer my time to help anyone (probably people new to the area) with
directions to camera stores etc... for a small fee...

For anyone who doesn't know what a Holga is, it is a cheap toy camera
made in China which takes some amazing arty type photos... I'm trying to
get more into it, but the lack of information and knowing where to buy
stuff around here has held me back somewhat... I hope that creating this
site will also increase my knowledge on the subject so that I can in
turn pass it on to others...

In future if the site goes live and I can get it up there on the page
rankings I might consider some google advertising and the like to keep
the site running...

Comments?

P.s - A few Holga photos I have taken attached...


Thanks,

Peta
