Default FujiPet: Very expensive Japanese Holga

Made during post-war Japan. Very cute and retro-future kind of design. But very expensive!

seems that it has cult following

despite the relatively high price, it gets sold within one day

see this thread

Hi Max, thanks for the post and this link. The blue 120mm (if I remember correctly) camera was my very first camera 32 years ago! It was out of my memory until now! Thanks for reliving my childhood!

Hi peeps, please remember to attribute the source of the photo when it does not belong to you. Even if it's not an 'artistic work' but just a photo of someone else's camera(s). Coz even though you do not claim the photo (eg of camera) is yours, other people may assume it is. That is just being courteous. Thanks.
