I use Zero Image 4x5 and 6x9 cameras.
I also have an anamorphic camera that I haven't been too successful with as of yet.
I have been enjoying the quiet simplicity of this type of imaging, how about anyone else?

Yep. Getting back into playing with pinhole cameras after some time away from them.

I assume you are familiar with www.f295.org? If not, take a look at what they have to offer.

A few I've done:

I haven't tried it, but would love to hear about someone who does. I'll bet the process is quite interesting.

Yes.........but it was back in 1975! While I was in college I took a photography class & we made pinhole cameras out Quaker Oats oatmeal boxes(actually tubes). We use printing paper & made paper negs.  I still have the prints!

I took a look at your site & your pinhole images are great!  I just might have to give it a try again!

Yes, I use my Toyo 4x5" fieldcamera as a pinhole camera. I have a dedicated lensboard for this where I can insert pre-drilled metal sheets. Works like a charm and easy/light to bring with me in my bag.

I've been working with pinhole for about three years now, and it's very much my true photographic love (for all the dabbling in the glass side I've been doing in the last year or so). Most of it's self portraiture, with 5x4 black and white film, though sometimes I go back to using paper negs.

My pinhole portfolio site is slowlight, but there's an awful lot more over on flickr too.

Katie,

I looked at your site the other day. You have some really beautiful work. I'm looking forward to seeing more of it.

Up-Date

Got a 120 Pinhole Blender the other day and it sure adds another unique element to my photographic endeavours.
Care to see some of the initial results - I'll direct you to my site at the link below.
