This is the Holga 120N 120 film camera. This "toy" camera is a basic, it has a plastic lens with variable focus for different types of shots, including portrait, small group, large group, and landscape. There is a sun/clouds aperature setting f/11 and f/8 and two shutter speeds of either bulb or 1/125 of a second. These restrictions make shooting easier and fun since it requires the photographer to have a solid grasp on the exposure triangle. The camera does support an x sync flash, which is great for indoor shots. When I have used this camera, I leveraged the latitude that color print and black and white film gives for over and under exposure to get different shots from this camera. The Holga 120N was my intro to medium format photography and using the 120 roll film. Without trying out this "toy" camera I wouldn't have thought about seeking the famous Kodak Brownie Hawkeye camera and the Kodak Tourist camera.
The photo itself was taken on Kodak Ektachrome 100 E6 slide film using my Nikon FT2 with I believe a 50mm lens and a tripod sometime in December of 2018.
