Re: Re: Variable Focal Length Pinhole

Dave -

The biggest I made was a 16"X20" out of foam core. The real problem with it was that it was rather unweildy, so I now use it to store things. <g> 8X10 is a great size and an excellent compromise of many factors. I am like Guy in that I end up taking many cameras with me when going on vacation. I don't end up using them all, but it is part of my "take too much film" philospohy - it is better to wish that you hadn't taken so much than it is to wish that you had brought more.

Cheers -

george
