Just my guess, but my first thought was that the actual pinhole was behind the visible 5mm or so hole. I wouldn't think you could get the level of sharpness seen in the samples with a 5mm hole. Nice idea, but I'll still have to find one of my body caps, maybe I should just buy a box of 10 and have done with it ! I'm hoping to find some hidden where the other socks of the pair have gone.

While you're there... -- teleportation kills -- Ken Hart f/128 is the right diameter for a given sensor size, as I recall, but that's a guess. Precision pinholes cost money (consult a professional optics house) and if they aren't precision, various unwanted aberrations can creep in, notably, irregular diffraction. The one I did measured to about 1/32 but that one was made with a pin in that mackerel can! Situated behind the 5mm hole in the bodycap. Maybe Ill try to make a smaller one another day but I believe that diffraction is relative the physical size of the aperture. So the same size of hole would give you about f/64 on a FF camera and so on... -- teleportation kills |

Besides, some diffraction is part of the beauty of a soft focus pinhole. -- PeterN |

The Holga is a good camera for those who like to look of the images. there are also pinhole and stereo models. Since it is a film camera, unless you have a wet darkroom, and/or facility for processing film, the only choice is a digital pinhole. When I wanted to play with a pinhole, I went to a friend's basement, and he drilled a centered hole in a Nikon body cap. I haven't been playing with it in the last few years. I have been known to do other things on impulse, like buying a Lensbaby and using it about three times in the last five years. -- PeterN |

Boring a hole in a thick material causes more problems. Not if it's done right. -- PeterN |
