[pinhole-discussion] WWPD site
Tom, Many thanks! That is great, and the navigation is very functional, just what I was wishing for on the 2001 page. Thanks for providing a great venue. Margaret Graham Tom Miller wrote: Hi Margaret, Thank you for bringing this problem to our attention. I forwarded this email to the site's developer and he just mentioned that he problem is fixed now. I just tried accessing the Pinhole Day gallery, both the thumbnails and full images, using IE 6 and Mozilla 1.2.1 and had no problems. The website is starting to undergo some modifications to accomodate the Third Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day, which will happen on April 27, 2003. Bumps like this might happen again.

I would like to see more pictures, get more details, maybe even find out how much it costs. I have no desire to send him an email. Anyway, I do my email through Yahoo, so this doesn't do me a whole lot of good. Too bad that something that should be so simple becomes impossible. I wonder if the camera is similarly designed. Common George, give Joaquin a break. The 1000's words the pictures in his site say speak very loud of his design and craftmanship. I said in my post that this was a PRE-ANNOUCEMENT. Joaquin sent me and a couple of other persons an email for us to PRE-VIEW his new creation, the site IS NOT meant as THE site from which he'll sell this camera, nor it is intended to ANNOUNCE the camera to the world, it says in the home page that there will be a web site coming soon. I'll stop short of saying I made a mistake with my posting of Joaquin pre-announcement to the list, Joaquin indicated to me, he was surpriced to find this morning so many emails from people interested, so no question some people were impressed with the beauty of the cameras and wanted to know more. Guillermo I would think that he would want to know that whomever is putting together his site is doing so in a way that potential customers will be driven away. Site designers too often indulge in grandiose designs meant to be cool that are actually unusable. There is nothing more important than usability. Before the final design is complete, it would be best for the site designer to know of the negative feedback from potential customers. If the site remains as is and goes live, he will lose many sales from people who have no idea how to use this confusing site. Just my opinion.

Re: [pinhole-discussion] 4x5 film
The film type is referred to as 'quickload' or 'readyload', depending on the manufacturer, and generally comes in b/w, color neg and color transparency. It fits a 4x5 Polaroid back and functions similarly to Polaroid sheets in the way the paper functions like a dark slide. It's much more expensive than traditional sheet film, as you're paying for the convenience. Any major supplier should carry it; try bhphoto.com in NYC. Enjoy and good luck, Margaret Graham Catherine Just wrote: hi, after using 4x5 film holders with my pinhole while traveling, I am very interested in the film that is already in a holder. I can't remember the name of it. does anyone have information about what I am trying to describe??? So instead of having to load the film into a holder you can buy a pack of film in its own holder. I am interested in black and white film, 100 speed. curious where to buy it, and how many come in a pack. Some people where talking about it a while back, but I have deleted the information. also: I'm looking through my first pinhole images, and most of them were handheld 45 second eposure, so they look hazey/ slightly blurred which I love. I am considering printing sizes as I am planning on having a show of these images. But I am curious about how much more blurred it will be if I blow them up really large. I will most likely lose alot of the detail, and they may look really blown out But because they are images with castles in them, they just scream at me to be bigger. Does anyone have experience printing this type of image large? Did you lose the image quality so much that it wasn't worth the enlargement??? Curious before i get started. also: has anyone used alternative methods of printing such as kallitype? Or salt printing? Interested in creating more depth / and using an old method of printing for these castles. thank you !

I had the same problem in Netscape but it is viewable in IE and well worth a look!
