I converted my Joycam to pinhole cam by removing the mirror and drilling
a hole in the plastic case over the film. The lenses I covered with
black tape and taped pinhole made from coke can over the hole. A piece
of tape
works as a shutter. My present tripod-mount is not one of the bests, I
glued a nut on a piece of wood and with small screws assembled this to
Joycam, it's shaky but better than nothing.
