[pinhole-discussion] Zero 2000 camera coming to Canada!
Hi Canadian friends! I was just checking the Toronto based Eight Elm Photo's web site for something and what do I see jumping right in front of me? You've guessed right! It's Zernike's Zero 2000 pinhole camera, right on top of the page. Will be available in May! http://www.eightelmphoto.com/ Hmmm... I wonder who told Mike Chan about the Zero 2000 camera? -:)) The great brotherhood of the list, I suppose....-:)) Zernike! Congratulations! It's great to see you advertised so quickly on my friend's web site. A fine cameramaker with a fine photo supplier working together. This should produce wonders! Guy

Re: [pinhole-discussion] Help me Keep on Pinholin'!!!

Re: [pinhole-discussion] Pinhole and lith printing - A natural complement?
Which lith printing paper kit were you using, Guy? I have lith developer and have used it with some non lith papers (infectious development method)but hadn't found lith paper in Toronto. Was thinking of ordering some from the USA. BTW have you seen the book The Master Photographer's Lith Printing Course by Tim Rudman? Very helpful and inspiring. Tina Hi everybody! Really this has been busy times for me lately. But, it seems I just can't stop... I received last week my first Lith Printing kit and I just had to try it on some of my favorite negatives. What a discovery! To me Lith Printing is a natural complement to pinhole. I've loaded a picture at http://www.p at ???/discussion/upload/images/accalmie1lr.jpg Comments welcome! Anybody else does lith printing on this list? I'd be happy to hear and share experiences. Cheers, Guy P.S. Lith Printing is a special BW printing process using specific types of paper and a specific type of paper developer. The paper is massively overexposed under the enlarger and processed in highly diluted developer for very a long period of times (from 8 to 30 minutes, with constant agitation...). The print turns in shades of colors and yields very different contrasts ranges in the highlights and the shadows. Something like split toning, but different, all taking place at the developer stage. ___ Pinhole-Discussion mailing list Pinhole-Discussion@p at ??? unsubscribe or change your account at http://www.p at ???/discussion/ _ Pinhole Visions at http://www.p at ??? ___ Pinhole-Discussion mailing list Pinhole-Discussion@p at ??? unsubscribe or change your account at http://www.p at ???/discussion/ _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

Tom You are in my and my churches prayers. Keep your spirits up Robin - Original Message - From: Tom Lindsay tlind...@erols.com To: pinhole-discussion@p at ??? Sent: Sunday, April 01, 2001 12:04 AM Subject: [pinhole-discussion] Help me Keep on Pinholin'!!! Hello All, It's been quite a while since I posted anything. What I'm asking for is those who do pray, to say a prayer for me. I'm still going through cancer and I am going for surgery on April 2nd and April 3rd. It will be surgeries 7 8 for me since June of last year. I figure if I get a global prayer going it just might get the Big Guy upstairs attention to put an end to all the crap I've been going through the last few months. I will be doing some pinhole while in the hospital if I have enough strength. I will share the whole story with everyone later on this Spring. That is after I get some editing help from the select few who have been helping me already with this; and they all know who they are. And I want to thank them now for all their help. This is the BEST group on the whole Internet; and I really mean it too!

Re: [pinhole-discussion] Help me Keep on Pinholin'!!!
Hi Tom, Any good fortune that the man upstairs were to send my way now and in the next several months has been redirected to your account. It's amazing how effectively communication with the Big Guy works these days. Looking forward to your future contributions to the list and especially to your future excellent health. Tom
[pinhole-discussion] a date with Tom
Tom, You will have to come through. Not only from global prayers, but you have a date with a LOT of folks Worldwide on April 29th. Rosanne
Re: [pinhole-discussion] My first mailing
Sorry, John. That should have read: 'That can feel invasive, so I'd also be sure your model understands how pinhole cameras work and why you're getting so close. Also, I found that I could take a pinhole picture with one camera and continue to shoot with a conventional camera, which is more efficient than just using the pinhole (and cheaper, as models usually are expensive).'

Re: [pinhole-discussion] My first mailing
Hi John I have done quite a bit of nude work both with pinhole cameras and ordinary cameras. I have had success with the pinhole cameras lighting the model with two pretty standard studio bulbs, one 300W and another 500W I cover them with a sheet of paper as a diffuser (be sure to use the proper holders for this. the bulbs get very hot and will burn paper if not kept about 8 inches away from the bulb. I have used ASA 100 and ASA 400 T-Max and even hand-held with ASA 1600 Fuji films. I found it quite practical. You do need a patient model, however. I was using exposures of about 3 minutes to 15 minutes. An experienced model can do 15 minutes without much discomfort and the slight movement that is inevitable is interesting. All in all, with good lighting, it is not as difficult as it might seem. You do need to get the camera very close to the model. That can feel invasive, so I'd also be sure your model understands how pinhole cameras work and my you're getting so close. Also, I found that I could take a pinhole picture with one camera and continue to sheet with a conventional camera, which is more efficient than just using the pinhole (and cheaper, as models usually are expensive). There are are at least three nude pinhole photos on my pinhole site, if you care to have a look. http://www.sonic.net/~talcroft/PinholeSite/ Good luck, Colin __ Do You Yahoo!?
