Greetings all!

If anybody on this list has been wondering about how to build an 8x10 camera
that makes paper negatives and does not require expensive 8x10 holders, here
is the answer from my friend Alan Zinn on the PhotoForum list.

But a word of caution. This site shows a "full frontal" lens camera! This
may require special guidance for people working only with pinhole cameras or
easily offended by light diffraction devices. -:))

A very brilliant approach to solve an old problem (IMHO).

Perhaps this concept can be applied to designing other contraptions (e.g. a
portable darkroom to process the paper negatives...!).

P.S. Alan Zinn does some fantastic work with 360-degrees panoramic (lens)
cameras that he builds. Check his home page at
