- Finnucane 8y agoIt's not difficult. You need a camera and a pinhole. With my Speed Graphic, I tape some tinfoil over a lensboard and poke a hole in it with a pin. If you know roughly the size of the hole you can make a good enough estimate of the exposure time. Then it's basically point and shoot.
- herodotus 8y agoI was think more about buying a sensor and an arduino....
- ghaff 8y agoThis post [1] describes how to use the electronics in a webcam. But you're essentially just replacing the webcam's lens with a pinhole. What you're basically asking is how to build a webcam from components. Which I assume is possible but non-trivial.

- brudgers 8y agoWhen I looked, most parts-house available sensors are small and even a 1" format sensors are pretty dear. MFT, APS-C, etc. were a multiple of a complete entry level interchangeable lens camera. For a pinhole camera with a small sensor, it's going to be hard to frame a specific subject because the sensor's field of view is tiny. Even a wire viewfinder will probably struggle with framing due to parallax. Basically the low cost sensor for pinhole photography is photo-chemical film. A hacky alternative for a might be modifying a flatbed scanner. Just step the photo array slowly enough that there's reasonable exposure at each point. The good part is that a flatbed scanner is a stupid big sensor and there is some literature for hacking them. But for a pinhole, I'd expect the exposures to be rather long even for pinhole photography.
