The Holga D is still a concept camera which was a project by India-based industrial designer Saikat Biswas. He delivers that plastic medium-format loom Holga camera into the digital age.

The Holga, a cheap toy camera will still be an optical jankiness that creates vignetting, blurring, and light leaks.

Biswas designed the digital Holga to be minimalistic.

The ISO, shutter speed and aperture will be placed on top of the body and on lens.

The camera is powered by standard AA batteries, and uses an SD card to store photographs.

According to the site “For those who are not aware of Holga, 
it is an inexpensive, medium format 120 film toy camera, known for its whimsical and surreal images. 

It’s low-cost construction and simple meniscus plastic lens often crates vignetting, blur, light leaks, and other ‘qualities’ that’s unacceptable in the mainstream photography. But the quality problems have obtained a major cult following among some photographers, and has become really popular in recent years.”
