1) PM perly. he has a ready supply of holgas. nice guy to deal with!
2) depends on the model u are buying. under $100, IIRC.
3) holga uses 120 format (ie medium format) film. can get from places like ruby or CP. cost depends on wat type of film and brand. starts from ard $6.
4) development & printing depends on wat type of film and size of development. for black and white, 1 sheet of contact print from ruby cost $10. sizes wise.. IIRC, a 5R piece from ruby cost me ard $5.
5) answered above.

Sorry to hijack but i have the same questions about Holgas.

Can i send 120 format film for development at any normal film shop?

Sorry if my question was answered earlier, but how many pictures can i take with a 120 format film and what is the cost to develop it at 4R size?

[perly]

many shops accept 120 processing, although not all do it inhouse...
check around the places you freq, prices range from 3.5 to 6 per roll.

1 roll of 120 = 12(6*6 exposures) or 16(645 exposures)

price per 4R ranges around 50c to 70c
