A friend of mine and I just did this last night. We:
(1) drilled a hole in the 'lenscap' (one you can use to
protect the camera when no lens is installed.)
(2) Drilled the smallest hole we could in a aluminum
from a soft-drink can.
(3) Taped the pinhole metal over the lens cap hole.
The automatic features don't work without a lens.
We chose a film speed of 1600 and tried manual
exposure times of 3-8 seconds (for a cloudy day).
It worked just fine. We also tried some manual flash
settings and got excellent close-up pinholes
Have fun!
