    Just made it-

    Didn’t have a camera, so I threw one together this evening-

    I don’t have much experience of pinholes, and don’t think I’ll be pursuing it too much further-
    I much prefer lenses-
    though I have seen some good stuff from pinhole cameras-
    maybe I just need a bigger original…
    must try that…

    The pinhole in this was 0.25mm, and the image is greater than 1:1- that’s a Matchbox model.
    I did some at infinity too, not a whole lot more resolution…

    The Sunbeam-

    All this talk of pinholes and nobody did one?
    Not even Dave?

    I dunno, took me half an hour to make mine-
    not exactly rocket science, you know…

    I had a really nasty cold/flu and couldn’t leave the house. So I shot this at home on my Daylab Polaroid pinhole camera.

    I did take a few using my Mamiya 645 with pinhole cap but haven’t finished the roll yet.

    I had planned on going to a classic car and airplane thing at a nearby airfield but the cold/flu really wiped me out.

    Well I’ve order a couple of pinholes to give this a shot next time around.
    Perhaps a PI Pinhole (PInhole?) day is called for later on :)

    Anyhow, some nice shots there lads !

    Well, there is a flurry of interest, it would seem-
    Yourself and Alan, Martin, and, I have a special report that Rob has decided on f/166 for his hole-

    Dave, hope you’re feeling better-

    So this is the camera I made for the WWPD-
    I limited myself to one sheet of A4 foamboard,
    and I was running out of Gaffer Tape, I could have used a bit more of that-

    Hole in tinfoil, poked with a 0.25mm drill bit-

    Built onto a Polaroid back, but it’s removable-

    Alan mentioned elsewhere that it was made in 5 minutes, not true,
    it took half an hour, and it shows- very rough…
