Pinholes are like snowflakes, but microscopes are notoriously accurate, and
my math is better than some think. I know how big my pinhole is, I know
what my effective aperture is. What done it is knowing one's materials and
equipment, and using that knowledge as a means, not an end. We can spend
all day quibbling about who is right and who is wrong, but in the end what
we ought to be doing is gazing through our pinholes and discovering new
worlds.

pinholes are not alike just like snow flakes so easy to mess up any bodys
assumptions nothing is exact the hole done it p.s. the way to darkin the
hole is to take a small piece of rubber lite it with a match let the soot do
the job has no density acts as a perfect assorber of stray light intering
the hole no reflections other chemical, paint or whatever has density and
will act as a reflector of light several applications of soot willcreate a
passage for light with much better results handle with care rubs off
