Hey guys,

ran into a cool guy from Philippines last night at burning of Zozobra in Santa Fe. He had beautiful set up. rolleiflex, leica, and the cool modest sized wooden 120 pinhole. Does any know where to get a 120 pinhole camera? It has my curiosity,

ZeroImage http://www.zeroimage.com make a range of pinhole cameras. They're very nice and give excellent results (see flickr link in my signature).

there are many available, but ZeroImage makes some of the prettiest. On the pinhole thread there was a list of others as well, some darn cute. A guy in poland, I think, makes a line that are really lovely called Vermeer.

Or you could find an old box camera that uses 120 film, punch out the lens, insert a pinhole, and there you are.

lately, I've been think about what could be done with something like a Mamiya 645 body and back...and maybe a body cap with a pinhole drilled in it.


Ooops...that's not wood. sorry. just thinking out loud I guess.

I just picked up a 6x6 wooden pinhole from zero image. It is very nice and I am really enjoying the simplicity of using it. Set it up point and expose (usually for quite a while). Accidental double exposures have been really cool as well.

I have one of the ONDU 6x6 pinholes. Really nicely made minimalist design. Dead Link Removed

I have one of these are I love it. It may not have the same charm as some of the wood designs, but it's an excellent camera with some great features. I also have a Zero Image, a Vermeer Panoramic, and the gorgeous new Nopo 6x6 (see: nopocameras.com) All of them are terrific and each has its own unique features.

An example from my Vermeer 6 X 17 pinhole camera (120 rool film - 4 shots per roll)

Hehe, you could put a slice of wood veneer on the body cap!

No veneer, but I did a pinhole body cap for my Bronica. The results are softer than the larger formats I've done, not sure if that's "just how it is" or if I need to retry the pinhole fabrication (it was a fairly early effort).

Just enter "pinhole film camera" on the nameless auction site and you'll get a bunch of hits.

Off topic: I notice a lot of people refer to it by that name here... Is it against forum regulations to say e%#%

I have an ONDU 6x6 and a Vermeer 6x17, both very nice and work very well. I have also built a few myself, a 6x24 curved plane, and a 4x5 pinhole camera, amongst others.

Interesting BlogSpot, I really like your approach to the winders on the 6x24. I am tempted to try something similar.
