As a rule of thumb I usually develop mine shorter to lower the contrast depending on how long the exposure was.

I needed a 30mm zone plate for one of my short focal cameras but the last I knew from Eric Renner when I was looking for that short focal length is that he did'nt have any. It occured to me that this is very tiny little spot on a 35mm film size (24x26mm), with a lot of wasted film around it that has to be cut out anyway to fit on the hole of the camera. So what I want to do is to place several zone plates on the same 24x36mm space. I could do this by generating several zone plate files and then cutting and pasting them with Photoshop on one single sheet of film. Or, if you have friends who want zone plates as well, you could share the cost of the lab by placing perhaps 4 zone plates on the same sheet of film. Seems to make sense. Does it?

Benno, I guess it needs more instructions. I'll put some together and put them on the page. Basically, the width and the height are MM and tell what size film you're going to. Then the focal length is the distance between the zone plate and the film. The number of rings is up to the user. The resolution, DPMM, should be around 100 to get a good image.

Re: [pinhole-discussion] pinhole and polaroid
Greg, You really overpaid. But, alas, it's a good camera once you fix the lens. If you're handy with mechanical things it's fairly easy. You have to remove the screws holding the bellows to the lens piece. Then remove the lens. I drilled mine which shattered it nicely. Then, I believe there is a blade, it's been a while since I did this, behind the actual shutter that becomes your shutter when you remove the real shutter blades. It will be obvious when you work the shutter a few times while it's apart and watch. Tape the pinhole where the shutter is and it all goes back together and looks the same as before. Good luck.

Do you have any suggestions on how to convert it to a pinhole?

[pinhole-discussion] Modiified calculators
Folks, I have just modified my Exposure and Focal Length calculators to allow changing of the background colors. This is a great help when printing them.
