As you may have noticed from our Blog and recent media attention there has been a lot of interest in the recent release of the Digital Holga lenses. We get asked a lot about these products from our customers to the HolgaDirect Store. In addition we are quite often contacted by customers who have purchased one or more of the Digital Holga lenses with advice about how to get the best out of them. On the back of this we have decided to produce a series of articles describing the lenses and provide advice and tips on how to use them. This article is the first in this series and covers the ‘Close Up’ Lens Set (CLS-1) and ‘Macro’ Lens Set (MLS-1). The piece was written by one of our favourite Digital Holga Photographer’s Chris Nitz who has produced some great images using the Digital Holga lenses. Please do check out Chris’ website HERE. Anyway, on to the article! Continue Reading…

Here at HolgaDirect we have our own selection of favourite websites to watch for great new and cool interesting products. ‘get addicted to‘ is one of those sites that we love to check out for not only their reviews of cool gadgets and uber-trendy designs but also their coverage of happenings in the art and design worlds. And when ‘get addicted to‘ told us that they really wanted to run a feature on our Digital Holga Ultimate Kit we jumped at the chance.
Peter over at ‘get addicted to‘ ran the Digital Holga Ultimate Kit through it’s paces by producing some marvellous portraits of Tom Glagow, owner of C.A.R.E. Music Group. Peter used the lenses in the Kit together with his own Canon 5D MKII to produce some wonderfully dreamy looking portrait images.
