>>A while ago somebody asked about pin"holes" exposed on film.
>>I have been thinking about this before, but never took the time to try it.
>>Now I had to do a print film and used the border of the page for some
>>tests.
>>I only exposed some polaroid pictures until now, so I am not sure if the
>>sharpness actually equals a real hole.
>>But as far as I can tell from the first tests, it seems to work quite
>>well.
>>
>>The good thing about this technique is
>>a) it is very easy to make a perfectly clean hole of exact size
>>b) it is the only way to make holes of other shape, like stars (if you
>>don't
>>have a laser)
>>
>>The way to do it:
>>Use a vector graphics program (like corel draw and many others).
>>Draw a black square of 25*25 cm.
>>Put a white shape in the center of the square, using a size of 1 mm. (I
>>used
>>one dot and two different stars from the "wingdings" font)
>>Combine the two objects and reduce the whole thing to 2.5*2.5 cm.
>>This way you can be sure that the "hole" will be 0.1cm .
>>(If you need other sizes, it should be not too difficult to calculate)
>>Then you can duplicate the object as often as the size of the page allows
>>it.
>>Save it as print file and send it to your service bureau.
>>
>>Unfortunately, I don't have much time at the moment for playing around
>>with
>>them, but if somebody else would like to try it:
>>I have made enough "filmholes", so that the first 10 people who send me
>>their snail-address can get a set of them.
>>
>>I would like to see the results!

>>PS: some of my pinhole photographs can be seen on www.chwirsing.de (made
>>with a zero2000, not the "filmholes" yet)
