An old 120 Brownie can also be converted to pinhole. One advantage of the Brownie is that the shutter has a time exposure setting. I just converted one. The lens was in a brass holder that threaded onto a block of wood inside the camera, so it came out very easily. It gets 8 6x8 pictures on a roll. The camera cost me $6.00 at the recent Photographica show in Boston.
