I hope that Tom Persinger is remembered as one of the facilitators of the post-factory photographic revolution of the early 21st century. My life is much richer as a result of my participation in f295. I have made friends that I will cherish for the rest of my life.

Thank you, Tom

Here’s a link to an article on making a pinhole:

Andy – I don’t have a Polaroid back, but if I ever get one, I will make it work on my 4×5 cameras.

Kathia – f stop is the distance from pinhole to film divided by the aperture diameter – thus my 120 mm 4×5 camera with a .4 mm pinhole is 120/.4 or f300. You can use a scanner to measure the diameter of your pinhole. There are also relatively inexpensive magnifiers with measuring reticles available – check out the Peak Optics website.
