My friend Christopher Evans recently lent me one of his Diana cameras to try out. The Diana is a plastic toy camera very similar to the Holga. Both shoot medium format film, and produce artsy fartsy photographs through their respective technical faults, such as vignetting and light leaks. The Diana’s image size is slightly smaller at 4cm square which allows for sixteen shots per roll of film.

The above shot is from my first roll taken with the Diana and I’m happy with the results so far. I’m glad to get the chance of working with this camera more thoroughly and really see what I can do with it.
