PINHOLE LIGHT REFLECTIONS

Hi Philippe,

Painting the inside of your camera black (or using
black paper) will definitely reduce the amount of
scattered light in your camera. You could avoid
scattered light reflecting off the inside of your
pinhole by using a non-reflective material. I've
heard of people using silver shim for their pinhole
material. Tarnished silver is black - and presubably
not very reflective. I suppose tarnished copper would
also be non-reflective. Of course you'd have to
'drill' your pinhole before tarnishing the metal (so
that the inside of the pinhole oxidizes)

Hope this helps,

Jeremy
