In case anyone is looking for an inexpensive route for starting a website, I 
can recommend Brinkster.com (I have no affiliation with them outside of being a 
pay-for customer for DRiPInvesting.org).  They are the only place where one can 
get free webspace without advertisements (if there is any other place out 
there, I would definitely like to know).Hi George! I also noticed that they 
have free web pages if one does not want to pay the $5. I met another pinholer 
on the streets of new york and he turn me on to this site...Just think that $5. 
is a fair trade to show photos to the world..regards Mickey

Actually, everything behind the pinhole gets the same amount of focus. 
Therefore, if there is dust on the filter, the dust will be in focus 
regatdless of which side of the pinhile the filter is on.  However, once 
the filter is clean, it is much easier to keep it clean if it is inside 
the camera.


Another list member advocated holding the filter in front of the pinhole 
and moving it constsantly diring the exposure.  This keeps any dust or 
imprefections from being recorded on the film.

Dusties have no problem getting projected onto the film when the filter
is behind the pinhole- I know this from painful personal experience!

Moral- Take pains to clean any dust fragments from your filter before
every shot, and, if your filter is inside your camera, make sure that the
inside of your camera squeaky clean, or else as soon as you close your
camera, dust will hop on your filter like fleas on a dog!

It really should not matter which side of the pinhole you place the filter. 
I guess you would have to weigh ease of removal to the possibility of lens 
flair and decide which fits the way you work.

hi, i just wanted to share a new camera i made. i cut a polaroid big shot 
down to create a wide angle camera. these cameras are nothing but good old 
hard plastic. great for carrying around in a bag because they're lightweight. 
anyway, i cut the bellow shaped plastic front off using a handsaw. i then 
covered the open front with a piece of metal (i used  a piece that i had left 
over from a tintype kit) spray painted flay black. drill a hole in the metal 
for your pinhole. i used a pie tin for my pinhole using a 10/13 crewal 
needle. the focal length(if i'm using the correct term) is one and one half 
inch. the great thing about polaroid bigshots is that you can leave them as 
they are for closeups or cut them down to various lengths. i got mine on ebay 
for under 20 bucks.

Thanks again Omar. I agree, making an integral film camera into pinhole is a
great accomplishment. I have not been successful so far, but my first
attempt was with a one-step camera that I forgot to test with the lens still
on to see if it even worked. I don't think it did! I am now going to start
over, using a known good camera!

Thanks Dan for the positive input,

The camera uses standard 600 film, which at least for now, can still be
purchased anywhere.  I have a few SX-70 film cameras, but cannot always find
the film.
In regards to the Modified Polaroid Impulse camera, the pinhole was
originally smaller, but the images were dark.  I had already glued on the
pinhole brass shim to the camera, and was about to give up.  I was thinking
about all these f-stops and and other pinhole calculations, when suddenly my
wife said, ...why don't you just make the hole bigger!  So I took the sewing
needle (what size I don't know..) and just inserted it into the pinhole and
ever so slighty enlarged the hole.
I know, this is not scientific, lacks mathematical formulas, etc. but it
worked.
I consider pinhole photography to be art.  If I wanted to be like Ansel
Adams I would not be using a $3 camera and a homemade pinhole.
Just the fact that an integral film camera worked for pinhole at all was a
great accomplishment.
I do own real Polaroid peel-apart film cameras that have glass lenses and
real shutters, but the images I obtain do not produce the unpredictable
results that I can get with a home made camera.
Recently I purchased a Zero Image 6x9 from Zernicke Au.  It is beautiful and
I hope to see what I can do with it.
If I can be of any help to anyone trying to modify a One-Step type camera
into a pinhole, please email me, I will be glad to help.

Camera


Hi Pinholers,
I am new to the discussion group, and although I have been taking pinhole
photographs with a Nikkormat and Pinhole Body Cap for about 2 years now, I
have recently built an integral film polaroid pinhole camera.  You can see a
couple of images of it:
http://www.???/discussion/upload/gallery2002.php?pic=omar_cam
era001.jpg

http://www.???/discussion/upload/gallery2002.php?pic=omar_cam
era002.jpg

I made my own home brew pinhole with a sewing needle, a pin vise, and some
brass shims from my local art/crafts store.

It took some experimentation but I was finally able to totally black out the
electronic light sensor to keep the camera's original shutter mechanism open
as long as possible.

Since I have a home made pinhole, I don't know what f-stop I am working
with, but, as long as I am getting an image on the film I guess it doesn't
really matter.

The Polaroid Impulse which I obtained used for $3 is really easy to take
apart with destroying the camera.  I simply replaced the Polaroid plastic
lens with a circular brass pinhole shim and glued it on with black silicon
adhesive/sealant.

I suggest to you that blind persons are probably better at this dyslexic
matters than people with good eye sight.  Besides, whether you are able or
not to see, when loading film (ortho film under safelight excluded)
everybody is blind, after all, we have to do it under total darkness.

 so here is a tactile way to identify the emulsion side... the emulsion
 side will absorb moisture so just hold your finger on it for several
seconds
 and it will feel sticky... this goes for paper, too

You may be right, but why (IMO) ruin a sheet of film by planting your
fingerprint on it.  As someone already pointed it out, the notches are there
to ID the film type and to tell you which is the emulsion side of it.  Use
the notches.

The notches serve two purposes, film identification and film
orientation.  With the film held vertically (8 across the top, 10 down
the sides) and the notches along the top edge nearer to the right side,
the emulsion is facing you.

I always have a wet wash cloth in my working area in case I get some of

If you follow Polaroid's directions for handling their product, you

I have been told that the chemical in this pod is mildly caustic. Our old hands
have thick skin so rarely to we have any problems. The problems occur if we
touch or scratch or probe other areas of our body which don't have think skin.
Think about how many times in a day that you rub your eyes. This transfers
those chemicals to those sensitive areas. I always instruct my students to use
gloves or wash there hands after tearing the print off. Wet One or some other

Hey guys,

  I'm back in the game.  After not doing photography 
in half a decade I've started pinholing again.  I'm 
using a cream of wheat camera with 4 x 5, B+W kodalith 
ortho film.  Don't use kodalith developer unless you 
want an extremely high contrast negatve.  I used ektaflo 
developer diluted 1:1 after mixing a stock solution(1:9).
I'll post something soon.  Just putting the info out 
there in case someone needs it.  BTW, I found the color 
negatve discussion really helpful.  Thanks

 Hello Group,
 
  I have recently rediscoverd pinhole photography

 notes from school but I find that they are not

  This is why I now ask if anyone in the group uses 
 Kodalith Ortho 4 x 5 film as I used to.  The suggested 
 developer (ektaflo) is very scarce and expensive.  Has 
 anyone used Dektol or T-max developers with this film?  
 I'm curious what film and chemistry combinations do you 
 use?

I use Arista Halftone film on occasion and develop with dilute Dektol.  The
dilution is in the 1+10 to 1+20 range, depending upon the subject matter.

 I would like to try ...motion picture  pinhole photography I have a 
three turret Bell  Howell 16mm motion picture camera.  I can remove 
the lenses and possibly mount a pinhole.
I know someone who has, they had to push their film-stock many stops 
bc (I think) they were shooting at 24FPS  recording sound (standard 
sound/projection speed)
If you do shoot at your lowest frame rate (on, I guess, your Filmo?) 
that will be 8FPS or translated into shutter speed=about 1/15 second

You may still have to push the film-stock.
Good luck!

I guess you didn't make it to the Why Pinhole show in Rochester NY. Thomas
Comerford had two 16 mm films. After his showing he said he had to hand crank
the film at a slower speed to give the pushed film stock enough exposure time to
record. I think he said he estimates that it was shooting at 4 frames per
second.

hello all.
having, i think, figured out how this thing works, i wanted to post an 
announcement for a lensless photography show in san francisco in july. the show 
opens on the 6th with a night of lensless films, and continues in the gallery 
throughout the month at ATA (992 Valencia @ 21st). we are still looking for 
examples of all manner of lensless work, motion or still photography. i realize 
that this is a bit early for an announcement and will repost it at a later 
date. i would like to encourage people to submit unusual lensless processes, 
and for those in the bay area to come by and check out the opening night (on 
the 6th).

hi.  
um, i'm planning a show of lensless photography to be held at 
 
a gallery in san francisco (ATA, www.othercinema.com). already 
 
in the works is a night of motion pinhole/photogram films, some 
 
still work (both pinhole and photogram), an installed camera 
 
obscura, and an ongoing disposable camera project. we'd like 
 
to find other work to present, either pinhole, photogram, or 
 
some other lensless process we may be, as of yet, unfamilar 
 
with. and hopefully expand the show outside of our small circle 
 
of working artists. any suggestions would be helpful. i ran 
 
across yr site, and thought that maybe you could post a note 
 
that we were looking for submissions...

Natalie,

We'll need more information.  What is the f-stop of you camera? or at
least the focal length?  What is the ISO speed of the film you're
using.  What kind of lighting conditions you want to shoot under.
Cheers,

You can get pdf data sheets for all the 4x5 films at:

There's also more info in their product catalog at:

Sorry I can't be more help, I'm using T55 and T52, haven't played with
