chy I dig it, interesting, have you ever thought of doing a slightly more 3 dimensional one, like 8 pinholes projecting onto a 8x10 thats slightly curved, kinda like a spiders compound eye.

That sounds like ye olde Quaker Oats box! Yes, I've done multiple pinholes with them, but the most fun was a cigarette box and a styrofoam burger box. I assiduously try not to make a "real" camera with pinholes. To me that takes the fun, spontaneity and serendipity out of it.

I was thinking of convex instead of concave, kind of that cool ball covered in cellphone camera units that took spherical super panoramas when it reached the apex of its arc (I saw it on petapixel a while back but am too lazy to find the link) this but analog and slower
here it is

Cool!

How about this - from a triple pinhole camera made from a 4x5 sheet film box. Film is 120, cut from the roll and taped on. Attachment 75335

Love the color. Was the first one on a tripod?

[jcoldslabs]

Thanks, tuco. No tripod. This was a trip to Paris about ten years ago so all I had was a little table top tripod with me. When I look at the transparency on a light box there is just a hint of motion blur (from me or her, not sure which) but at screen size it isn't all that apparent. I sure love that camera. I need to use it more.

You know, on second thought I may have been employing a trick I learned from my father. He used to set the legs of his little Leitz tripod pressed against his chest, long leg of the tripod pointing straight down and resting on his sternum with the other two legs tucked up under his collarbone. With the camera on the ball head tightened down for stabilization, he could still hold his eye to the viewfinder and fire away. If you press the shutter while holding your breath I find this works better than a monopod--it's almost second nature to me now. No so good if your heart is beating hard or fast, though. So a tripod may have been used (in a manner of speaking) after all!
