Re: [OM] Results from really cheap pinhole camera

[Wayne Harridge]

Moose,

The shutter is from an old Polaroid close up camera (CU-5 ?), it has only 1
speed - B !
It works well enough and was easy to mount on the wooden "lens" board.
The pinhole is about .3mm and sits about 35mm from the film plane giving
about f128.
The vignetting which appears in all the images is caused by the shutter
assembly, I suppose I should make something a bit thinner so the vignetting
could be eliminated - one day !

Neat looking package.

What's the source of the shutter assembly? And what is the pinhole diameter?
