   Murry,
  My favorite pinhole camera is a large popcorn tin. It uses 11x14 photo
paper with a 2.5 to 4 min exposure time in the sun. My lens is highly
technical, I poked a hole with a straight pin in an old piece of pop can, no
idea what size it is. :-)
  The photos are very sharp and if I EVER get better with stiching scans
together I plan to publish them to the gallery. My newest large format
pinhole, I am working with this fall, will be 24" in dia and 36" tall. I
plan on using roll mural photo paper.

  Good luck,
  Chuck Flagg
