Holga Twin Image Maker does 3D images on the cheap

In the world of High Definition and digital photography, many of us have already forgotten about lo-fi photography. Well, we are glad to report that the latter niche is still not quite dead yet, as it focuses more on creative experiments alongside inexpensive film cameras to create works of art. The Holga Twin Image Maker (TIM) is one of them, burning a small $60 hole in your pocket, and yet sporting a couple of lenses that enables it to shoot either 3D images or half frames. Not only that, it will also pave the way for multiple exposure of a single frame, sporting a detachable flash with color filters to boot.

The TIM will feature a couple of fixed focus plastic lenses (f/8, 29 mm) which will work together simultaneously to deliver 3D images, where you as the user will have total control of opening and closing their covers. With a multi-exposure button, bulb mode for long exposures and 5 flash covers (red, green, blue, yellow and one clear diffuser), it will open up your eyes to the world of lo-fi photography.

The camera itself does not need any batteries to work, although the flash will call upon the reserves of two AA batteries. Anyone given it a go already, and how do you find taking a different path compared to pure digital photography?
