I am considering making the film plane 1/2 circle, perhaps 1 MM pinhole

I've made several ULF pinhole cameras over the years. Shot using paper negatives. X-Ray film also possibly very useable but many times the reverse image on the paper was my final print. Black Foamcore and a hot glue gun were the simplest constructions materials to use. Overlapping top by about one inch worked for making the camera light tight. For me a 90 degree curved film plane seemed to work the best. I used 2 ply black cardboard for making the curved back. Using three 90 degree cameras placed atop each other gives you three final prints covering 360 degrees. Pinhole Photography Rediscovering a Historic Technique by Eric Renner is a must book to acquire. Size of the pinhole is very subjective. Personally liked pinholes to be a bit smaller that the sizes Renner suggests in his book.
