Yeah, they are used in quite a few 3d printed designs! The other popular ones are fujinon large format lenses.

It really is, and I could definitely improve things with a better pinhole.

At some point I plan to print a 6x17 camera with an actaual lens and do some medium format panoramas

terraPin ACME 6X6 (6x9, 6X4.5) Pinhole Cameras - 120 film by schlem The terraPin ACME pinhole camera is the culmination of years of 3D printing and camera design work. This camera is assembled WITHOUT ANY FASTENERS, using sliding joinery. With the exception of the pin...

If you want to make one yourself, the model is on thingiverse here: www.thingiverse.com/thing:1724928 … it’s super easy to print and build, the designer, schlem, did an amazing job!

It even worked! I definitely need to make a better lens and the framing and exposure was all vibes based but it’s still amazing to me that I made this and then was able to use it the same day!

This morning I 3D printed a camera, this afternoon I went out and shot with it!

This is the terraPin Cameo, a 6x9 medium format pinhole camara. I used part of a monster can (obvs) to make the lens and a piece of developed colour film for the window

The second photo I cut the film too big and it stuck to itself and kinda runined the emulsion but hey, so it goes. I definitely want to do more #PinholePhotography now!

I'd never made a pinhole camera before... I used Pan F+ in 120 because I'd accidently wound the whole thing when loading another camera... 🤦🏼‍♀️

Exposure times, film cutting/loading and development was purely vibes based and the images look like shit... but like, they *are* images!

I got sent a video on making pinhole cameras from trash, at the time I was having my breakfast monster and I got... inspired

I didn't have the right film and I completely yolo'd it... but it WORKED!

oooh long!

I have a Soligor 28mm F2.8 (M42) that I quite like, hopefully the 400mm is equally nice 😊

many such cases. what lens?

It was just one swan actually... 😆

One of the only photos without a light leak on a recent trip to Fountains Abbey to test the Zenit 12S.

Hopefully new seals fixes it!

I've decieded to split my bluesky in to two accounts...

This one (now @sophietakes.photos) will be my photography account, so posting here will largely stay unchanged

@sophi.ee will be my general account, for anything non-photography related, so feel free to follow me there too!

Well, the #Holga delivered what it promised on a recent walk in the #YorkshireDales 😆

I like these photos, the pink duct tape clearly influenced the light leaks, which is awesome.

Ooooh exciting!

Definitely want to try this too! I’ve got some adapters 😌

Time to get serious about medium format 😆

I'd say she works pretty well!

If you ever need a hand let me know. You can dev and scan black and white for pretty cheap, especially if you already have a decent digital camera ☺️

Thanks! Yeah there really is, one of the many reasons I love shooting film

I want to try and do more stuff with weird/older cameras this year 😊

Another from the #FilmRescanProject, taken at the first #Rustival event.

The owner of this very cool 1925 Austin was happy to pose with his car. To spite using an old camera, it was 30y newer than the car

Yeah it’s pretty bad for it.

I just want to keep posting my silly little photos and try not to spend too much time doomscrolling… but it’s hard 😭

Hehe thank you!

For a camera that’s up to 75yo… without real focus, shutter speed or aperture control… she did okay!
