Take a look at:

Just use a paint can instead of the oatmeal can.

Has anyone made a pinhole camera (maybe out of a paint can or something)
with a light trap on the top that would let developing chemicals in?
Basically something that would work just like a developing tank with a
pinhole in the side?

I'm just curious because it sounds like it'd be pretty easy to make a camera
like this and it might be a way to make WWPD really accessible to
non-pinholers.

eg: what if you made a bunch of these cameras (with the paper in them
already) and had a group/class/etc take pictures with them (you'd already
have an idea of what typical exposure times would be since they're all the
same focal length and pinhole size), then gather everyone back together and
pour developer in the first one, dump that developer into the next one and
replace it with stop/water in the first one, and so on like a daisy chain.

Seems like the easiest way to have a group take pictures and have developed
negatives without a darkroom.

I know some people have developed paper negatives in a can camera but I'm
guessing they do it in a darkroom.  The light trapped hole on the top might
be a good addition.  Has it been done already?
