Re: What paper do you use?

Hi Tom,

Thank you for your response. I'll keep my eyes and ears open to help you
find that MATTE surface paper.

Did you get a chance to see the camera/cameras that Lutter uses when you
were at her lecture? I have a friend who is a supreme MASTER craftsman
with wood, and I'm going to get him to make me a VERY LARGE pinhole
camera later next year and was wondering what to design for him to build.
Got any ideas you'd like to share?
