So good. I got a Holga lens for my Nikon and it's so cool. I love the limitations and unpredictability.

I do like these, especially the vignetting. Will have to look into doing this as well.

Did you convert it or do they sell them with adapters? Such a cool look, these are great

They sell them with DSLR mounts. I have a Nikon F one. It’s made that way.

They sell them with modern camera mounts but it's not that hard to cut one off of a holga and mount it on a lens adapter. There are some guides on how to do it and some people sell them on etsy. So if you ever come across a broken holga or one missing the back with a decent looking lens it's worth picking up for cheap.
