My entry to Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day, 24/04/2022 this year, with a PiP showing the gear used. The photo is from the upstairs back window looking across some backyards to part of the front of a house on the other side of the next street. pinholeday.org We see the top of the Hills Hoist clothes line, the mandarin tree and the paling fence. Over the fence is a shade house. Beyond that in the next house is a steel workshop. Lastly is the front of a house in the next street. The centre object in the PiP is a short extension tube for my Minoltas SRT101/100. The pinhole is in heavy aluminium foil. The foil was originally the seal on a tin of 'Milo' chocolate drink powder. It has been glued to the lens face of the extension tube and a tiny hole made in the centre. The left hand side object is an adapter for Minolta MC/MD lenses to 4/3 camera lens mount. On the right hand side is my Olympus E410 with which the photo was taken. This is a photo taken with the Minolta years ago: www.ipernity.com/doc/grahamh/24038633 This is a photo taken with the Minolta's 58mm lens: www.ipernity.com/doc/grahamh/24038661 This shows an approximately 60mm focal length equivalent for 35mm film so ~30mm on a 4/3 sensor.

Compare this with www.ipernity.com/doc/grahamh/24038661 to see that the field of view is very close to the Rokkor 58mm/f1.4 lens The pinhole was made by gluing a piece of the aluminium seal from a can of chocolate drink powder across an MC extension tube. A sewing pin was used to make the hole. The photo was commercially scanned.
