Flowers (pinole)


I fitted a pinhole to the body of my camera today. The hole isn't great but it's quite nice to be able to check the exposure time without having to go home and develop the print (like I used to do with my carboard pinhole cameras). I shall try and make a better hole over the weekend I think and then maybe the shots will be a bit cleaner...although that's not really the point!Posted by Hello

The pinhole idea is great. Combining something so simple with the high tech.

Hi, yeah it was very easy to do. I simply drilled a 6mm hole in the body cap of my camera and then taped the pinhole I had made onto that. Apparently you can buy them from Adorama ready made ($30).

Excellent Ted, a great idea. I remember your previous pinhole shot of Goleta Beach, that was spectacular.
