Pinhole Photography

[Erin Henry]

I was wondering if any of you guys on 365 have ever done pinhole photography? I haven't had the chance to do it, but from what I've seen, it looks reallyyyy cool. I found this website about pinhole photography, if your interested...but if you have any cool pictures taken by a pinhole camera, or tips on how to make one, or just anything else, please share! Thanks :)

I was thinking about this just last night! I have no insight i'm afraid but will be interested to see what other people say i want to try it.

We have to make a pinhole camera for TAFE and we will be using it to make images in May. Thanks for the link

I've always wanted to try and I probably got the idea from photojojo....great site! Maybe that's something to put on my to do list?

I did pinhole back in high school with a simple camera I made out of matboard. I just exposed photo paper, though... no film.

I have two 4x5 backs from LF cameras which I built a really simple box and pinhole for... than I just make contact prints with an enlarger and a piece of pipe... really slick... easy set-up... as long as you have a closet or bathroom for the enlarger, a contact print board and a dark-bag you can make everything in your kitchen, sans darkroom... if you are like adams you don't even need an enlarger in his book "The print" he tells how to do it with a normal light...

Thus your total cost to make 4x5 or even 8x10 contact prints could be under $100 for materials and chems...

I got a pinhole body cap for my SLR a while back... haven't done very much with it yet.
