Recently I decided that I would like to try experimenting with medium format cameras and film. I started off using an old Metascoflex which was lent to me by my father. It was given to him when he was a kid and it was at least 15-20 years old at that time. Basically, it is VERY old. Normally I would say that this doesn't make it bad but... The counter for the film stopped working, it has a light leak, the viewing window is very dirty and scratched, and It has trouble with many types of film. I decided it would be easier to get a new one.
Because I'm just experimenting I don't want to spend too much money. I was looking at a few cameras by Holga, more specifically the Woca 120G. I have heard that these cameras can have some rather serious light leak problems. Is this camera worth trying out, it is only $30.00, but I would like to know what you all think of it. Any advice will be appreciated.
