Back in April I bought a HOLGA 135 Smart 35mm Film Camera from Amazon for the massive sum of \u00a312.95. It was the cheapest reusable camera I’d seen so just had to give it a go.

It is probably the cheapest film you can get. Then I took the camera on my trip to the Isle of Skye. Here are a couple of shots from walking around Dunvegan one evening. <\/p>\n\n\n
