Hello, all:
I just subscribed (as of yesterday), having cast about for a way to shoot
a 16 mm film without renting a camera, without paying a lab's developing
fee, and without boring my easily-bored eyes. Hitting the web for tips, I
have rigged a little canister for 35 mm still photography with both
pinhole and slots through which to advance 16 mm film. It was a lazy
Sunday I spent dabbling without much conviction, scrounging around for
tape, glue, a box, you know the story. I am still amazed that this should
work, in theory at least. We have a simple mechanism for advancing the
frame and keeping registration without exposing frames to light until they
enter the gate of the canister. Has this been done? Once exposed, I'll
have only to hand-process the thing. And then, . . a movie . . of
pinhole photographs!
