How to convert your Holga to a 35mm camera

Step 5Take Pictures

Take lots of pictures.

NOTE: Since there's no way of knowing what frame you're on, use the "34 click rule." This means that, after every picture, turn the winding knob and count 34 clicks. This gives you enough room on the film so that your pictures don't overlap.

ANOTHER NOTE: 35mm film is considerably shorter (as in height) than medium format, meaning that your pictures will be smaller than the viewing window. Solve this problem by setting up your shots as if the top 20% and bottom 20% will be cut out of the frame (because they will).
