Re: 35MM Pinhole Camera?

Read through the populist info, it addresses your rewinding question.
It's more readily reliable than 120 film pinhole cameras, where keeping
the film tensioned properly is an art unto itself.

I built a 120 populist, too, although I find I haven't taken it out to
shoot yet. It's just that little bit bigger, and when I go out I can
slip the 35mm into a cargo pant pocket or a jacket pocket. Or a suit
coat pocket, I've started working on a series of office images. The 120
populist is a bit less spontaneous because it's more than a bit bigger.
