Here is an image from a pinhole bodycap on a Nikon D1X digital camera.

The camera allows exposure times up to 30 seconds. Compose and meter for F22
(you can pre-set ISO and just use what you were otherwise using). Multiply
exposure time at F22 by 40, take the lens off, put on pinhole, change mode
setting to manual, set the calulated exposure time and shoot. Other than the
stunt of doing digital pinhole, it's kind of a nothing experience. Because
the CCP is smaller than a 35mm negative, you compound the effective focal
length by 50%, in effect you are shooting with a 75mm lens on 35 mm format.
On the other hand the D1X is an absolutely wonderful tool.
