Re: [pinhole-discussion] BODYCAPS

2003-03-27 Thread Thom Mitchell
Giullermo you are correct. Canon FD mount body caps will work on the
following Canon bodies: the F-1, AE-1, A-1, TX, FT-B. I've accumulated these
bodies over the years and they all work with the pinhole resource body cap
as well as my much cheaper self-made body cap with a zone plate. The Canon
EOS bodycaps are labeled accordingly. Thom

Here are the instructions:

buy bodycap, drill hole in its center, tape pinhole on the cap.

BTW, Canon F body caps are for FD mount bodies, your AE1 uses FD mount, AFAIK.

King of perverts!  that's really funny.

Yeah,  I once was doing some pinholing inside the beautiful building of Trinity
College at the University of Toronto and the, yes you guessed, security guard
told me not to continue because he thought my 4x5 made out of scrap baseboard
moulding was a professional camera!  I was able to use my Nikon SLR w/o problems
tho.

Ben,

Pinhole bodycaps are the best thing since nikkor
lenses.  However, it would be just as easy to build
one as to purchase one, and you would save a few
dollars.

[pinhole-discussion] disposible camera

2003-03-27 Thread BenDuross
Hello
I recently got a copy of the disposible camera handout, thank you very much.
But I was at the gallery where I work the other day, taking a disposible 
cameera apart. And one of the security guards dave asked me what I was doing, 
when I said I was making a pinhole camera, he thought I was perhaps some king 
of pervert.
Although I think maybe when I said pinhole the was thinking about one of those 
one you see on ebay to spy on your nanny to make sure she isn't stealing from 
you or battering your kids while you are a work. I think he just did'nt 
understand.
Does anyone else have any stories of pinhole-related misunderstanding.
Also I don't really understand what this pinhole rat is.
