    Cool. So a smaller hole would have given you a sharper image?

    well, yes, from what I understand-

    but not ready to hang around for 30 minutes for the exposure!-

    (although I did not have to expose very long for this shot)-

    anyway, neat taking a pic without using a lens-

    I read about that technique earlier today - pretty cool. When I 1st saw it, I thought you had drastically oversharpened it . It's fun to explore sometimes.

    a lot of pp on the pic but it was neat to do this w/o the lens on what is basically a very old idea-

    Say, how did you build a digital pinhole camera?

    What fun! Maybe next time you could try a white body cap with a little red stripe on it...I hear the optics are much better. mwink.gif

    Film is usually 1-4 mins from my experience ...i once took one directly at the sun & it was about 1/500 & turned out.

    hey gus-

    I really don't have much experience with this except for the couple hours I fooled with it yesterday-

    I had read a couple articles that was saying anywhere from 1 second to a day (camera obscura?) for exposure times-

    e.g., from

    http://acept.asu.edu/PiN/rdg/camera/camera.shtml

    Suggested exposure times
    outside, bright sun: one minute
    outside, cloudy: five minutes
    inside, sunny window: eight minutes
    inside, sunny room: 14 minutes
    inside, dim light: 30 to 40 minutes


    I had tried a shot indoors for over a minute and realized I was going to have to use a lot longer time to expose than what I was doing-

    anyway, it's neat to fool around with-

    Yeah...they seem the same as film now that i look. Here is a 4 min exposure of me & my bikes under an awning late afternoon. The whole album.

    I will certainly be getting back into it all soon as i have bought a house & have lots of room downstairs under it now. I used to just put a blanket over me to develop...man those chemicals honk !
