Re: Need paper pinhole camera engineer

Hi everyone,
well first what a great pinhole swap some really great pic's arrived,
Now on design of pinhole cameras/ buying ,my daughter who is living in San
Francisco bought a pinhole back for her niece
called a "Hole-on Ex" ,marketed by the loonar group at www.pushforpull.com
I have tried to contact them with a view to buying some.
 1)for my students, 2) To put in the shop at Dimpola museum.
As for redesigning Dirkon why don't you look at it to up grade it to a 6x6
format !!little work would be needed to do this im sure .
