I echo this statement with wholehearted enthusiasm. Due to working on finals,
up until the last minute, I wasn't able to participate this year. :( But I've
so far enjoyed seeing what was done across the world- bravo!

I have already informed my husband that before he throws any manner of
container away, it needs to be run by me first. In fact, just last night I
saved his old leatherman belt clip from the trash.

Uh-oh. I think I'm in big, big trouble. ;)
We had our critiques yesterday, in class. I was one of 3 people who really
liked the project. One of two who actually went searching for outside
information on it. And the only freakin' one who made more than one camera.

Okay... another newbie question.
One of the cameras that I am using is an oversized oatmeal can. I'm using 8X10
paper, which fits perfectly when placed horizontally.
The image isn't taking up the entire area, and I'm wondering what exactly
causes this, and what I can do to get it closer to
Altoids are a 'curiously strong' brand of mints. They come in little tins.

Don,
I would like to find out some more information about scanning negatives. Do
you need a specialized scanner to do this, or merely something 'high-end'?
Thanks,

Marcy,
Couldn't you trace the interior onto paper, cut it out, then trace it onto a
piece of thick cardboard, and cut *it* out... then, perhaps, you could use the
scalpel to cut the film around the cardboard. I don't know if this would give
you a better fit than trying to go around the

Since pinhole is not an exact practice and since pinhole exposures tend to
be more underexposed than overexposed and since for practical
This seems to be the prevailing message. I thought that I had mixed everything
properly, but then again, it was my first time mixing at home. It's entirely
possible that I did it incorrectly. I'll have to give it another shot this
weekend.
On the plus side of things this means that I

Photography', by Jim
Hmm... you know, sometimes you don't think of something until somebody says it
aloud. I'm really surprised that my teacher (the head of the photography
department at my college) didn't think of this.
The first time, I used tape and a 4X5 piece of RC paper to experiment with
exposure.
I have made a couple of pinhole photographs, and have seen a most curious thing
happen.
The camera I'm using is a converted 5.5 X 12-inch CD box. On the first day, I
inserted a 4X5 piece of paper in the camera for exposure testing purposes. The
image that came out was completely round, and
Ray,
I have a question. Looking at these charts for the camera that was created,
the aperture was determined to be at f160. Yet when looking at the 'f16 rule
applied to pinhole', it states to use the times for an aperture of f180.
Why is this leap made- and would you stop up like that with
These chemicals are (mostly) the same ones that I use for processing regular
film. I've never before had a problem with these.
The new chemical I used was Ilford paper developer... I think it is the HC.
You could dilute 1:9 or 1:14, and I chose the latter. When I first mixed it
up, it

honestly say at this point that pinhole looks like too much fun not to tinker
with on a regular basis.

Nice and informative article. The mathematical formulae look a little scary,

Hello, I'm currently a student at a local community college where we are
building (in photo 102, strangely enough) pinhole cameras.
My teacher, for some reason, didn't see fit to tell us anything about pinhole
