I see them and think "might be a fun way to get into 120" but having a plastic fixed lens camera of questionable quality would surely make me feel like I'm blowing good film on a toy.

I understand wanting to waste a bit of money just because it's cool to try this or that artistic technique or tool but in shooting 120 film with a plastic toy in 2026 is just not worth it

You can buy an old folding camera for less money with infinitely more capability and better glass.

Given how expensive film is there really is no excuse for not spending maybe $20 extra to get something that was actually good when it was first made.

Not a single wasted word.
No reason why this thread should go on.

>why fashion accessory bad price performance, paying extra for vaseline smear?
most photographers are performative

photography is not art. the definition of art was slaughtered, cut up, and rearranged into a vague facsimile of itself that hurts no feelings and denies no pilgrims to make it possible to monetize “art photography”. yet we still find self described artists here.

therefore the real art is in the theatre of the photographer.

pointless given how cheap decent 120 used cameras are

I'd buy me a Nikon F if I were you.
Never heard of Olga

Depends. Do you want a camera that does what a Holga does? Then find a cheap one secondhand and have fun with it. Otherwise, just don't get one. It's a one-trick pony, but sometimes that trick is what people want.

I reckon you are better off with an agfa clack you can get for under 10 bucks.
