Those settings are a recipe for underexposure. Good idea to bring an SLR with Portra 800 as backup. You can try the Holga, but don't expect it to be perfect.

Well my own experiment went ok... Lomo 92 film with the new Godox im30 manual flash made for a very light set up and was conscious to not get in the way of the wedding photographer. I went off the guide number and trusted the aperture of the holga and all came back underexposed even in where the flash has hit. So time to measure the godox actual power with a meter. Happy with this shot though and the couple were too. Next time I'll use the sb-800 with its built in lightmeter to do all the hard work for me

It's been like almost 2 years, right?

You may have already discovered this but it looks as if an answer may be a long time coming given that he was last seen on Nov 2024. That's not to say he will never come back but 6 months absence does not bode well for a return or not for a return where his wedding experience may even be something that is on his mind at the point of return
