About four years ago I was at the New York City public library and in their gift store I found a 35mm pinhole camera kit. It was a bit overpriced, but the packaging appealed to me and I convinced myself that it was my duty as a photographer to indulge in the craft of making a working cardboard camera at least once in my life. I bought the kit and it sat somewhere in my room year after year until today. Here's a video of me building the camera in less than three minutes (but it really took me over 2 hours). The camera photographs in a square format with four different settings using two apertures plus a soft focus filter, and uses 35mm film. I'll do a review one day after I test it out.
