History and technical features

Felita is a medium format film viewfinder like box camera made by Vredeborch GmbH, Nordenham, Germany and introduced in 1955.
It is similar as Vredeborch Felica but with metal body. It uses roll 120 film for 6x6cm frames. It has a 60mm f/8 meniscus lens, zone focus and a central, Guillotine type shutter with two speeds, 1/25 and 1/50 +B. It was offered black and grey coverings. There is a rare version with red covering also.

The Vredeborch Felica is a simple camera for 6x6 exposures on 120 film, made by the German firm Vredeborch. It is a modest step upwards from the most basic box camera, with scale focusing by twisting the front ring of the lens; two shutter speeds; aperture settings "sunny" or "cloudy"; and a yellow filter to enhance clouds in black & white photos. The series began with the Felita of 1955 and continued with the Felica Duo and Stafetta Duo, variations that offered a second 6x4.5cm image-format option.

Esta fotografia é do exemplar que possuo

Características

Holga 120GCFN is a Glass Lens Medium Format Film Camera with built-in color flash. It produces the well known Holga style classic lo-fi photos with the shadowy vignettes, unpredictable light leaks and soft focus in your square shots. It can accommodate all 120 medium format films. The Holga 120GCFN package is provided with two different film size of frame masks, so that it can take both traditional and square format pictures. The Holga 120GCFN includes a built in flash with a spinning color wheel for your choice of red, yellow, blue or standard white flash. Two batteries are required for operating the built-in flash, but it can still take photo without batteries. Although the Holga 120GCFN is basically a fixed focus camera, it still offers four choices of object distances. Two choice of aperture are available: f/11 & f/8. The multiple exposure can be achieve by not advancing the film after a frame has been exposed. Fifteen camera body colors are available: Black, Blue, Camouflage, Gold, Pink, Purple, Red, Red&White, Silver, YRB, White, Yellow, Tri-Color A/B/C.

he Holga is a medium format camera that recently became ultra-popular, partly as a response to the digital consensus with modern photography, and in part as a low-cost, unpredictable means of using film. The Holga is quite cheaply made and consequently is relatively low in cost, making it also a more interesting entry-level type of camera. Everything in the camera is plastic, including the lens, and this leads to blown-out, wild-looking photos with plenty of light leaks.
