Diana and Holga Kool-Aiders notwithstanding, I never met a light leak I liked - either on a real camera or a toy camera. After having a few otherwise decent Diana shots ruined by light leaks I decided to do something about it. I have not had any problems since. (Plus my acne cleared right up.) Is it time to go commercial with the Diana Skin? If so I will need some candidates for names!

OK that is fine.... That one will spare me for experimenting with tape and remembering where I put i last time....
Name: DLLP that is Diana Light Leak Protector
And I could use a template to make one myself.... Commercial, not sure... Diana-folks are 'do it yourself' folks.....
 
Funny, I was thinking about this the other week for my Holga - like you, I want the lens effects, but not the light leaks, and did some searching on any sort of Holga "neverready" case, but came up empty.

I might be willing to part with $5-10 for a Holga version of this, but then again I might be in the minority there :smile: (I'm assuming the material is not leather or anything expensive, as that would be kind of anti-thetical.)

Actually if you already *do* have a Holga version of this, PM me and I might take it off your hands.
 
How about panties?

(running for cover...)
 
Diana Leather Corset?
 
Wouldn't it be easier to just flock the inside and put foam in the light trap grooves?
 
Damn. I thought it was a model blimp with a diana attached...
 
I was thinking Macy's day parade with a giant diana held down by all those people holding ropes...
