  1. I am working on converting a Polaroid packfilm camera to pinhole today. The heavy lifting, ie removing and reconfiguring, work is done, all that remains is calibrating exposures.

  2. Yeah! You go!

    An easy way to determine the f/stop is to scan the pinhole at high resolution on a flatbed scanner, make a selection the size of the hole in your image editor of choice, and see how big it is in the Info palette.

    f/stop = hole-to-film distance / hole diameter

    (distance and diameter must be in the same units of measure)
