Just as a point of reference, if you're going for this look you can also get it with a Lomo LC1 - it's a 35mm, with a lens with pinhole-like falloff, and it has an exposure meter that will keep the shutter open until it thinks it's received enough light - I've had it stay open 5 minutes. I have photos from halloween in Greenwich Village a few years ago that look very much like this one.

OK, I just got back a test roll from my hacked TLR zone plate camera. This is the only one worth reporting on. Its taken in traffic at night, but I flipped the image because it works better like that. Unfortunately, this doesn't really showcase the zoneplate qualities, unless its to give the lights a softer glow. But it certainly has a lot more life than the other shots on the roll. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pinholegallery/files/DSZP/zpdashboard.jpg Focal length, 90mm, ASA 100, exposure 4 blocks at 25mph. I'm about to build a rig to use as a mount for the cameras that will fit in my moonroof opening and allow me to also reach up and trigger the shutter open and closed. _______________________________________________ Pinhole-Discussion mailing list Pinhole-Discussion@p at ??????? unsubscribe or change your account at http://www.???????/discussion/
