Re: Pinhole camera from disposable camera?

Howard,

My first message to this list (6/9/00) was in response to a question
about single use cameras. I modified my cameras according to an article
I read in Aug. 99 Popular Photography pg. 46, 48, 49 + 146. Perhaps I
was the one you spoke to, Im often forgetful and busy. The shutter
spring and catch is modified so that it hangs up and won't close until
the film is advanced. Its hard to explain how to do this without
pictures. I also hear that this camera is no longer being made, I
haven't found any new ones for a few years. If you can't find a back
copy of this issue I'll gladly send you a copy of the xerox I have.
