Another badass homemade lens! This one was made from a magnifying glass by Flickr member [j°Sh]. As you can see in this photo made with it, it’s got enough chromatic aberration and focal falloff to make things endlessly interesting.

Tom Persinger’s f295, home of the excellent International Pinhole Photography Discussion Forum, have added the DIY (Do It Yourself) Photography Discussion Forum, "dedicated to the exploration and discussion of self-made photographic equipment and materials".
The quality of conversation, experimentation, knowledge, and helpfulness on the pinhole forum is exceptionally high, and I expect this to be no different. Camera builders, lens hackers, homemade kit traders, come check it out!
