Holga-blad

More like a .... in shutter, but never the less.... you would not do that with you Hassy !

Nope...that looks like an Acme/Ilex something or other shutter, probably with a Paragon or similar lens, or some nice vintage Kodak product..principle is the same though...I like the idea of the 6x12 Holga with an LF lens by the way (and off topic). Doesn't have to be 'blad, there is plenty of other glass out there just as good or even better (ok, 38mm Biogon aside perhaps )....At the same token, there are quite a few cheap lenses ala Holga that would fit a 'blad. Just remember the shutter issues...No big deal come to think of it.....I'm thinking 75mm f1.9 Oscillo-Raptar in shutter........They're crazy/weird/crap lenses in good shutters and are usu. as cheap as/cheaper than a Holga....Just glue them onto an old Hasselblad Body-cap that you've reamed out to the right size. Focussing? Claro: Glue a (painted flat black if you must) PVC tube on same and let the lens slide in/out...end of story. Enjoy!

Not long to go now!

No but if I had added ".. or developing processors" I would actually have saved money instead of buying a CPE2 with lift :rolleyes: GAS strikes in many ways
But our shed is almost finished and I can start getting my darkroom arranged.
Should take care of some of the GAS attacks.
Best regards
