The worst lens in the world by joysabin

The worst lens in the world

Santa brought me a new lens, a Holga. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holga ).. It has been described as the worst lens in the world but I disagree. I feel challenged with the learning curve. ( https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=holga+lens ).
Here is a review. ( https://stephend.photo/holga-hl-60mm-f8 )

My first test involved fog which is no surprise in the Pacific Northwest. I do like it and will continue my explorations with it.
Interesting, including the review

Personally I like blur, distorted and stylist images, and I love Holga🙏🌟🎄

@joemuli It is a fun lens to have and takes me places that I didn't know I needed to go.

Sometimes working with limitations, or around problems, gives rise to the most interesting shots. Does seem like a funny choice to give someone “the worst lens in the world”, LOL. I’m assuming it was a request on your part. :)

Magical scene. I like a lomography.

I quite like the results too. The worst lens? In whose opinion?? I think it offers a very dreamy alternative to tack sharp images. Each has its own place. This lens was perfect for this shot imho.
