Andrew,
f/stops progress by a factor of 1.414 which is the square root of 2, therefore,
the numerical value of f/stops double every other stop. If we start at f/11 (we
could have started with any f/stop), the next one is f/16, since they double
every other stop, the progression would go like this:
Can anyone help? What's the proper progression of f-stops above f90? Is f128
next and tell a couple more if you have the info at your fingertips.
I've picked up a Finney Pinhole Bodycap for my Leica M. It's listed as a
30mm, approx. f128 and my Minolta meter goes to f90. So is f128 the next
f-stop
Hi Zami,

adapter to use pentax thread lenses with it (it transforms the bayonet into a
thread).
I had some aluminum tubes made to fit this thread, so now it is easy to change
focal distances and/or transform from Zone Pla

Neil Gourley recently posted a question concerning information on the
history of pinhole cameras. Several responses were written on the usual
sources that come to mind but I recently came across a resource that I had
never considered before. Several doctorial dissertations have been written

Yes, there is a pinhole diameter that will give best sharpness for each
distance from pinhole to film. The simplest version of the formula is
(distance to film in inches)(55) equals the square of the optimal diameter
in thousandths of an inch. In your case (1.12 inches)(55) equals 68.99, the

Anyone has tried converting a 35 mm camera to pinhole ?
I have modified an old Pentax Spotmatics Reflex camera , the idea was that
using a 35 mm format will make it easier to experiment with various types of
films . film drive , sutter timing , tripod attachement and release cable
