First, define "much the same thing; second explain how you are comparing the results of an image captured by a piece of plastic with a max aperture of, what? f17500? using iso 3200 film, against a piece of world class glass using virtually grainless iso 100 - or slower film - because the max ap of the Noctilux will allow you to shoot the same photo that requires 3200 with the Holga using much slower film. And no, I don't have a Noctilux. B.
