[pinhole-discussion] Making the actual pinhole

Hi Joel, I read your message on the list regarding what size drill bits to use to make your pinholes. Personally I've had great success making my pinholes out of aluminum from pop cans (or "soda" cans if you prefer). The aluminum is very thin, not to mention cheap and plentyful. I use a sewing

- Original Message - From: "Gregg Kemp" > I have a set of miniature drill bits, but prefer using needles. I agree with Gregg. IMO, the best "drill bit" is a needle and I have used drill bits to make pinholes. My experience is that even a drill bit, which are calibrated, in other

I use an Exa with a pinhole placed in an extention tube adapter. About 25mm focal length. http://www.slonet.org/~rheather/EXA2.jpg Argus cameras with body shutters like the C3 C44 and C21 markfinder can be used An old folder like a balda could have the bellows and front removed and a very wide angl

[pinhole-discussion] at home color processing?

Just wondering if any pinholers here are processing their color negatives at home. Is such a thing viable? I have been concentrating on b&w for quite some time, and don't know to much about color chemistry... Maybe someone has some recommended internet links...

Re: [pinhole-discussion] 35mm Short focal length

Get a Holga ($15), cut the lens and shutter off and glue your pinhole directly to the body or inset it. I think the focal length of my Leica pinhole body cap is around 30mm. It's nicely wide angle. The Hasselblad one is about the same focal length as the lens and not very wide angle at all. - O
