Last summer I saw an article in the Seattle Times about a photographer
named Roseanne Olson who takes pinhole photographs on Polaroid 55 film.
Although I have not yet used this film myself, it was seeing these
photographs that impelled me to take up pinhole photography. You can
read the article

This is perhaps not what you are looking for, but Bostick Sullivan has a
Bellows Patch Sealer kit, for next to nothing, which I used to repair the
bellows of my 11x14 field camera. I does wonders if you follow the
instructions.

I used this film frequently with my 4X5 camera, but have never used it
for pinhole applications. It is quit slow (ISO 50) which could make
for some pretty long exposures. It is a wonderful film for enlarging,
plus you have the advantage of seeing your results within a minute.

I have fallen in love with color pinhole/zone and I have been using 120 color
film in the Zero 2000. I was wondering if one could use color paper in a
oatmeal box camera as one uses black and white paper. If so, does anyone
have recommendations for kind of papers, a base line exposure guide (

For a lot of photo restoration projects I pick up Emblem and Decal adhesive
at the local autoparts stores. It works good for a lot of applications.

I am seeking advice on what sort of adhesive to use when making a bellows
out of darkroom cloth. I've been using the spray adhesive but it is messy
and bulky. tried super glue with no success.
It sounds as if the switch that operates the printing light
is stuck in the ON position. If you're comfortable with
taking the contact printer apart, it may be possible to
get the switch unstuck so that it works as expected.
(I have never seen a contact printer that was designed
