Tipster of the Day: Unfocussed Daydream Love
written by scapegoat on July 28th, 2008 , 5 comments (3 votes)

Upon the announcement of it’s “indefinite demise”, Polaroid fans were left with two choices: sell their equipments then quit instant photography altogether and embrace the embarrassing culture of digitised imagery, while others chose this very lo-fi path…

120MM FILM + HOLGAROID FOCUS RING! by ilovekotatsu

I was an idiot and shot 120mm film while leaving on the Holgaroid focus ring… I was devasted when I got the shots back… BUT… everyone else seemed to love them :) And they have finally grown on me too… and hence, a new tip is born!!!

Your photographic mishaps can be the most genius LomoTip of them all that will save us analogue shooters from extinction! How so?, because LomoTips are love.

    You know the old Polaroid back for the Holga? Well it is the ring that comes in that pack. Like a plastic lens that you put on top of the holga lens to make it work with the Polaroid back. get me?

    I love my Holgaroid. Fuji makes nice instant film although not to fit every Polaroid. It will be a sad day next year when the last of the Polaroid 669 rolls off the line.
