Steve Ricoh Posted April 25, 2020 Share #68861 Posted April 25, 2020 Advertisement (gone after registration) It’s a magnificent capture so well envisioned and executed, Phil. In my mind it stands up with some of the greatest images and I admire it greatly. Thank you for sharing it with us again! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

christoph_d Posted April 25, 2020 Share #68866 Posted April 25, 2020 On a different topic, and as you have perhaps a bit more time this year at home: On April 26th is the next "International Pinhole Photography Day". You can find all the details on pinhole dot org, but the idea is basically that all participants submit one picture they took on April the 26th with a lensless camera, so pinholes, zone plates etc. are permitted. Submissions can be done until June 30th, and all submitted pictures will be shown on an online gallery. (And, not to forget, in this way you can experiment with the unschaerfe theory that Phil talked about...🙂) Welcome, dear visitor!

Maco and fotoimpex have at least one if not many pinholecameras ready to send, one to four days in Germany. I am sure its the same with comparable shops in France, the UK and the US. Alternatively you could sacrifice a common camera cap. Drill a hole, or even better drill a large hole and glue a smaller hole (made for example from a beercan) on the inside. Focal length should be about 28mm, so you can even use the respective viewfinder marks from your M, and the lightmeter if present. Or you build your own camera... Lots of options. A long week week still to go. Live your dream! You can do it! 👍🏻 Edited April 25, 2020 by christoph_d 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
christoph_d Posted April 25, 2020 Share #68871 Posted April 25, 2020 I just remembered, as a most simple trial you could cut out a round piece from a black thin cardboard, just a bit smaller than the outer diameter of the bayonet ring on the camera, prick a hole in the center and use some tape to fix it to the camera instead of an objective... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary If you assume f # of 100, I’d meter normally and work out the corresponding shutter opening. Then compensate for the break down in linear reciprocity using the film manufacturer’s data. It tends to an exponential, but not quite. 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

christoph_d Posted April 26, 2020 Share #68877 Posted April 26, 2020 (edited) Hi Gary, You could either use a known size to make the pinhole, for example a 1mm drill (quite big), or you could measure the size of the pinhole using anything from callipers to a microscope. Just for the example let's say you have a 1mm pinhole. Then you measure the distance from the pinhole to the film, again, for the example say it is 28mm. Now you calculate the f-stop of your lens by dividing your focal length, 30mm, by the pinhole diameter, 1mm; so in the example you get 30. You probably want to round this off to 32 as 32 is a common f-number. So after metering you can easily calculate your shutter speeds. All films are different, so you will have to look up the Schwarzschild effect on the Datasheet of your film. My rule of thumb: If the sun shines, just use normal values as you would for any lens. When it gets darker, like shadow areas outside, expose 1.5x, inside in daylight 2x, in the night 4 - 8x as long. Luckily most films are quite forgiving. Bracketing helps, especially with slide film. Btw. if you use an old can or tea-box as a camera, an effective and simple shutter can be made from black insulation tape, for your Leica, use the shutter you already have.
