[pinhole-discussion] digital pinhole camera idea (what!?)

2003-05-30 Thread Trent Dowler
Hello All,

 While walking through the local outlets, I've come across the one
time use digital cameras that are now making their way onto the market.
My first thought was, Hmm, I wonder if I could pinhole that thing?
 Knowing so little about digital cameras, I ask the list...
 Has anyone else thought about this? Is it possible? Should I
attempt to build one of our beloved pinhole cameras using this latest
technology? Is this blasphemous? Will I be ostracized from the pinhole
crowd for toying around with it? grin
 If it's possible, it sort of looks fun. At least, it's a new twist
on things.
 I'm looking forward to hearing from the group.

Later,
Trent

Looks like dust or dirt on the sensor.  Most are in the same place in
every image, and some images have more than others (the dust
accumulated...)

A friend tried a pinhole bodycap with his Canon D60. The images can be
found at:

While the results are better than expected, we noticed some funny dots
on the pictures. An example can be seen at

Does someone have an idea, what these dots are? Internal reflections
on the chip?

Here is another interpretation of digital pinhole. I made this image using a
tiny hole in a cracker served at the artist's reception for a digital
photography show I'm in. Had to keep my priorities straight.

Ed, you might try the MACO 820IR film. It's sensitive to higher nanometers
than
the other spiked red films. It also comes in 120 and 4x5. I recently shot
some in my Fuji 6x9, using an 87 IR filter. Long exposures, but very nice.
And the film is pretty fine-grained in Rodinal. I haven't yet used any in my
4x5, but intend to very soon. I use a pinhole in a recessed lensboard, set
for about 50mm. I think the MACO is going to do very nicely, even if it
isn't HIE.

I've routinely shot several second exposures with digital cameras (not

I've been craving pinhole with infrared imaging capability, difficult

hi,

CCDs have a property of reading heat as much as reading light, since 
heat has also its waveform.

long exposures makes the CCD surface get moisty, I believe that this is 
why we get those dots, they are from the heat interference.

so, you need a CCD made for long exposures which is called cooled CCDs.

they may be found in cameras used for astronomy (pinholes whatching the 
stars).

Most astronamers use digital now. So digital can do long exposures. It's
just that most digital camera aren't designed to.
I imagine that it takes a constant stream of photos, and merges them

I used a pinhole bodycap on my nikon D1X. You can calibrate the exposures by
just looking at the LCD and trying again. All in all I didn't like the
process or the results. It seemed like too much horsing around with
machinery, and the acceptance angle is pretty narrow.

since the pinhole is so close to the CCD (a beautiful piece of blue

I am told that it is possible to use a camera body cap with a pinhole in on a 
Canon camera. Set the dial to aperture priority which, without a lens fitted, 
automatically selects 'stop down metering' and will give the correct exposure 
for the film speed set.
The pinhole is approximately 0.28 mm dia.

Here is an image from a pinhole bodycap on a Nikon D1X digital camera.
www://???/discussion/upload/gallery2002.php?pic=digital_pinho
le.jpg
The camera allows exposure times up to 30 seconds. Compose and meter for F22
(you can pre-set ISO and just use what you were otherwise using). Multiply
exposure time at F22 by 40, take the lens off, put on pinhole, change mode
setting to manual, set the calulated exposure time and shoot. Other than the
stunt of doing digital pinhole, it's kind of a nothing experience. Because
the CCP is smaller than a 35mm negative, you compound the effective focal
length by 50%, in effect you are shooting with a 75mm lens on 35 mm format.
On the other hand the D1X is an absolutely wonderful tool.

You could try getting a cheap or broken one disabling the light source.

2002-02-24 Thread Mark Interrante
Hi,

It is my understanding that these surveillance cameras have TV resolution
(330 pixels tall) so this will only be good for about a 1x1 or 2x2 print.

I also shoot digital (Sony 707) and am happy with the 8x10 and mostly happy
with the 11x14.  This camera has 5M pixels so you would probably need 
approximately
5-6MP.  The consumer level cameras in the size range are $700-1100 but have
fixed lenses and I don't see any way of converting to pinhole.  The alternative
would be to get a digital SLR (Nikon, Cannon, Sigma, or Kodak) and use a
pinhole body cap in place of the lens.  Anyone on the list done this?  One
issue for digital cameras is that the image is noisy after the shutter is
open for a second or two.  The 707 has special noise reduction that allows
clean 30 second exposures (good for night photography), I don't know about
the digital SLRS but that would be a consideration.

Friends say that the best 4x5 digital back is BetterLight and cost $10-15k,
however these backs are all scanning so there is a limited range of exposure
times (betterlight goes down to 1/8 second).

 Greetings!

 Has anyone seen tutorials or articles relating to making digital pinhole
 cameras or at least using a digital camera/digital back to create pinhole
 pictures?

 Thank you,

 Jack Duganne

I don't see why you can't use a body cap pinhole on say a Canon D30 or a
Nikon Digital to try it out...
IN fact I'm making one for a NY Times Staff Photographer...I'll pass on
anything I hear back

 Is it possible to make a pinhole photo using a digital camera?

This may not be the kind of digital image you are interested in, but I have
3 pinhole images made with a Barbie digital camera at:

Select Gregg D. Kemp under year 2000.
