Pinhole Camera Project 2015 (Finished)

Here is my pinhole camera finished at last!

 

This was probably one of my quickest pinhole camera builds as I have only spent about a month working on this camera. I attribute this to the fact that I did not have to spend time on build a chassis. This not only saved me a lot of time, but also allowed me to focus more on building and designing the inner components.

 

I have recently painted the inside of the camera a flat black, as well as adding the pinhole and a dark red filter over the rear window. For the pinhole I cut a square from a soda can and made a small hole using a fine sewing needle. After loading a fresh roll of Kodak T-Max 100, I taped a long piece of black electrical tape over the gap between the chassis as an added measure to prevent light leaks.

 

I can't wait to try it out, wish me luck!
