Nikon Shoe Mount Speedlight

First to recommend

Description

The show mount speedlight flash by Nikon gives your photos a brighter look and sharper appearance. It is a state of the art speedlight: it has 3 light patterns including center-weighted, standard, and even.

My favorite part of this is that it tilts up to 90 degrees, down 11 degrees, and swivels a full 180 degrees for extra creativity. You can remove it from the camera, as well, and use it as a remote speedlight. Lots of fun.

Any digital camera easily attaches to this handy tool. Avoid those awkwardly close pictures of you and your friends with this. Also, no need to ask other people to take a picture of you when you've got the Quik Pod in your bag. Extendable arm. Perfect for anyone who's going on a trip or who just can't post enough photos of themselves on Myspace.

Holga Slip-on Filter Holder Adapter

First to recommend

Description

This adapter holds color filters that can be bought separately. It attaches onto your Holga lens and the soft surround color filter lenses can be inserted for an interesting effect. Hard to believe your Holga pictures can be made MORE interesting than they already are - but this looks pretty promising.

Lomographic Holga Starter Kit

First to recommend

Description

I could ask for one present this Christmas, and this was it. The Holga starter kit comes with everything you need to start your Holga photo adventures. The Holga is an all-plastic camera, including the lens. It's cheap design is its greatest asset - your pictures come out looking cooler than a polaroid ever did. This kit includes the camera, film, an awesome book on Holga-ing, batteries, tape (you have to tape your camera sometimes, a fun poster, and an instruction guide. Great gift for you or anyone who hasn't exercised their Holga muscle yet.
