A Mamiya TLR with interchangable lens capabilities can be pinholed by
making a pinhole "lens board." Additional benefit is you can use it as
a lens camera also, inte

Search for part number 9504K11 under Find Products (top left corner). 6" x 60"
is $4.22... you can make a whole lotta pinholes with this!

Where do you find 0.001 brass shim stock? How wide does it come and is it
work-hardened? Every hardware store I've visited pulls out .032" brass sheet
and say it's the thinest they have.

Rita,
They don't give a very detailed image, like you can get by converting an old
Twin-Lens-Reflex camera (like the Argoflex!) but you can see the general area
you are going to photograph. It's definitely easier to use than an oatmeal can!

I've tried a number of inexpensive medium format conversions to
pinhole. Most can be seen at:

For "normal" focal length 6x6, the easiest (e.g., working shutter with
Time/Bulb setting, cable release function, and tripod socket) is the Agfa

I have a circle of black plastic (1" diameter) with a
1/8 inch hole in the center. To the back of this
plastic piece I have mounted and centered a pinhole

All you need to do is pry off the lens/shutter
assembly with a flat metal implement(I use a kitchen
knife). Remove the underlying shutter and mount your

Is there a searchable archive for the pinhole list?

Hmmm... this feels like deja-vu, all over again!
I've been converting the Agfa Shur-Shot into pinhole cameras. Advantages: you

size isn't exact, but that really doesn't matter.
