Pinhole Camera: A Do-It-Yourself Guide Hardcover – 17 Jun. 2011

Excellent volume if you wish to make your own pinhole camera. The book is hard back and has an internal spiral binding, which allows it to lie flat. Ideal for reference whilst building your camera.

This book is lots of fun, great ideas- expect shopping trips though when you want to make anything in this book. Also the copper foil recommended for making pin holes with was quite hard to find as thin as is stated in the book- ended up buying some from Fred Aldous which works great although pricey. My brother steals this book from me he loves it!

this is a great book - however alot of the cameras require access to a darkroom after a single image which is alittle off putting. All up a fun intresting simple how to book with plenty of scope to be taken further.

There's no way my pin hole photographs will ever be as (technically) good as pictures from my iPhone, but the pleasure of making a pin hole camera and getting some splodgy grainy pictures from it far exceed anything I've achieved on the iPhone.Be careful, this absorbing past time could absorb all your free time, and you'll have a silly grin on your face...This book will show you how to make a camera with all necessary calculations, choose your film and how to develop it, taking the picture is up to you.

I used this book to create cameras for a uni project, the guides are really clear and easy to follow, if you want to start having fun with film photography buy this book

clip in pages and bitty. Text accessible but didn't get to the point or feel focused enough. Has good information and could be good for very beginners.

Why wouldn't you love making magical images from a hole in a piece of card - I have done it a hundred times but just keep on doing it - and making your own camera - come on - that's just fantastic.

The book is informative and the building instructions are thorough. I was pleasantly surprised with the results from the matchbox camera that I made.
