My Life Working With & Building Pinhole Cameras!

•

Pinhole camera built from cardboard, cotton and paper. The pinhole was made using a needle in a small piece of metal cut from an aluminium drinks can and measures approximately 0.4 mm.

Focal Length: 100 mm

Aperture: f/250

Image size: 11 x 8.5 cm (approximately)

The back of the camera can be opened for loading and is sealed using velcro recycled from an old pair of trousers. In this photograph you can see the pinhole at the front of the camera.
