Holga 135 BC zone focus 35mm camera

The Holga 135 BC is a fun 35mm viewfinder camera. It's a close relative to the classic lo-fi medium format Hogla. The 'BC' in the name stands for 'black corners' due to its pronounced vignette effect.

The Holga 135 BC is well suited to creative multiple-exposure photography as its shutter can be fired even if the frame is not advanced.

As with the original Holga, you focus by pictogram (the lens gives 4 focus zones). It's a purely mechanical camera primarily designed for daytime use but it provides a hot-shoe to attach a flash (available as an option) for indoor or nighttime photography.

Condition notes

The camera is working correctly. It has a rather unusual cosmetic flaw--a little burn mark (we suspect it was hit by a campfire spark) but this doesn't affect the camera's functionality. Otherwise, the camera is in good cosmetic condition (see photos) with normal wear from use.
