Doc Henry Posted April 27, 2016 Author Share #14542 Posted April 27, 2016 Last Sunday was the annual "Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day". Once a year, on the last Sunday in April, people all over the world take pictures with pinhole cameras (actually any lens-less photo is eligible) and post one of the shots taken on that day on the "Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day" website. 160424_1_PiHoCa_0002.jpg I started the day in my favourite local brasserie, having a cup of coffee with my daughter (self-made panorama pinhole camera, Portra 160, 15 minutes exposure) Rgds Christoph ... and how does it works Christoph ? where you put the film and how to present the camera ? in principle a cardboard box is enough no ? In any case nice color of Portra 160 Best Henry 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In any case nice color of Portra 160 Best Henry Henry, Attached a picture of the camera in question. Basically a wooden box with a tiny hole in the front. That hole is, in the picture covered by the sliding shutter, that plate-thing sticking out on the top above the hole. You can lift it up to open the shutter. Welcome, dear visitor!

Two turning knobs on top, the middle one to open the lid on top of the camera if you want to change the roll-film. the other one to the side to advance the film. There is a small viewing hole covered with a red filter on the back of the camera to check the film number. The film itself lies curved in the camera resulting in a panoramic view. Consequently, there is virtually no distortion on the vertical axis, whereas the horizontal axis exhibits a sort-of fisheye distortion. The camera is a bit more complex to build than a cardboard box, but it is quite sturdy, and the use of roll film makes the taking of multiple exposures easier. As exposure times mostly range from 1/2 a second in bright sunlight to hours in dimmer light, the use of a tripod is recommended. I do have a Lunasix meter, which covers up to f90, so it's relatively easy to convert exposure times to f256...

gbealnz Posted April 27, 2016 Share #14545 Posted April 27, 2016 I've never built one Henry, but figure you could do it with either/any film body where you can remove the lens. A solid body cap with a pinhole in it would suffice. But exposure of minutes. Gary 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
christoph_d Posted April 27, 2016 Share #14546 Posted April 27, 2016 I've never built one Henry, but figure you could do it with either/any film body where you can remove the lens. A solid body cap with a pinhole in it would suffice. But exposure of minutes. Gary In principle you are right, and if you turn up the ISO to a few thousand, you may even be able to take pictures free hand. You can purchase those caps, or simply make one yourself. Best to drill a larger hole in a body-cap and then use a fine sewing needle on a thin foil of copper or brass, and stick that pinhole on the body-cap. The advantage of large format is a relatively sharper picture though. Somehow, due to mathematics and physics and how light bends around the pinhole, larger format pinhole cameras have a distinctive image quality advantage over 35mm pinhole cameras - a bigger difference in my experience than their comparative lensed brethren. Of course, at some level image quality in a traditional sense may not be what you are after anyway if you use a pinhole camera ... in which case you can just as well forget all I just wrote...
